SEL1. Friendship Explorers: Social Skill

Service Description

Overview: Friendship Explorers is a small, supportive summer group designed for children ages 6–8 who struggle with social interactions, emotional regulation, or confidence around peers. Many children in this age range want to make friends but feel held back by big feelings such as worry, frustration, or overwhelm. Through play-based activities, games, stories, and guided peer interaction, children learn how to: Build and maintain friendships Communicate their needs and feelings Manage big emotions that come up during play Practice flexibility, turn-taking, and problem-solving The group provides real-time coaching and support, allowing children to practice skills with peers in a safe, encouraging environment. Skills are taught in developmentally appropriate ways and reinforced through hands-on activities rather than worksheets or lectures.
