'Social thinking' skills help us to form happy, healthy relationships with the people around us.
This program is designed for children who would benefit from extra teaching, reminders, support and/or practice with social skills, social language concepts, vocabulary and engaging in every day social interactions.
The program we implement is called the "We Thinkers! Social Explorers", and incorporates direct teaching, play-based learning, group interactions and parent education to encourage generalisation of each new social skill to everyday life!
By the end of this program, children will have made new friends and developed a new way of thinking about social interactions.
