Art & LEGO Social Confidence Group
Some children need a little extra support feeling comfortable with peers—especially those who are shy, slow to warm up, or experience mild worries in social situations. This art therapy group provides a gentle, creative space where children can practice social skills, emotional expression, and flexible thinking through hands-on art and LEGO® activities. Predictable routines, warm guidance, and opportunities for low-pressure participation support children as they gain comfort and enjoy group interactions. Through guided play, collaborative challenges, and social-emotional lessons, children strengthen the skills that help friendships grow.
