Parents often find that transitioning from the unstructured summer months to the classroom setting can be challenging for children.  Adjusting to new schedules, meeting new classmates, and making new friends require children to expand beyond their comfort zone and adapt to their new environment. With our social skills groups, we are here to make your transition as smooth as possible by preparing your child to build lasting healthy relationships with their peers. 

Throughout this process, we are mindful of busy school schedules. That’s why we have designed our programs through a time-sensitive lens that caters to those who desire to move through each step quickly and efficiently.

Due to an overwhelming response to our previous social skills programs, registration is open immediately and will be filling very quickly. If you are interested PLEASE call our office as soon as possible to reserve a spot for your child.  

Why Join our Social Skills Groups?

Social skills are essential for future success in all aspects of life! In addition to giving your children the tools they need to be prepared for a lifetime of healthy social interaction with others, our group provides children with strategies for developing self-regulation and building a solid core of self-esteem and self-confidence to navigate situations with peers in the home and in life.

Here are just some of the topics we will be covering:

Effective Communication, Empathy, Compromising, Patience, Active Listening, Body Language, Respecting Personal Space, Apologizing, Eye Contact, Taking Turns. Following Directions, Staying on Task, and Resolving Conflict

We are so excited to be able to provide this service for you! If you have any questions or would like to have your child join one of our social skills sessions  please email or call our office at contact@sdkidsfirst.com / (858) 692-4187, and we will be happy to help you!
