Sign up for our Summer Group Intensive!

  • This fun and supportive summer group is designed to help kids feel confident and prepared for the next step in their school journey! Through games, creative activities, and plenty of play, kids will learn important skills like sharing, taking turns, following directions, and getting along with others. They'll also explore how to understand and handle big feelings—like frustration, worry, or excitement—using easy tools like deep breathing, calming strategies, and positive thinking. It’s the perfect way to build friendships, boost confidence, and help your child feel ready for the excitement of starting OR returning to school!
