Playdate
Our playdate program provides an opportunity for children to explore peer socialization and group skills in a natural and engaging environment. It is designed to ease the transition from one-on-one learning settings to small group interactions, fostering critical social and play skills essential for personal growth.
How Does It Work?
Our playdate program provides an opportunity for children to explore peer socialization and group skills in a natural and engaging environment. It is designed to ease the transition from one-on-one learning settings to small group interactions, fostering critical social and play skills essential for personal growth.
Why Are Playdates Important for Autistic Individuals?
Play is vital for all children, especially autistic learners, as it serves as a foundation for developing social communication, emotional regulation, and problem-solving skills. By engaging in different types of play—such as parallel, cooperative, and imaginative play—children learn to navigate social interactions, build confidence, and foster meaningful relationships. Our playdate program nurtures these skills, preparing children for larger social groups and real-world scenarios.
