Social skills involve understanding and managing social interactions, including communication, empathy, and cooperation. Developing these skills can help your child build meaningful relationships.
It is important to remember when discussing social skills that friendships and interactions can look different from one person to another. While some people view friendship as someone to walk and talk with, others may view friendship as someone to sit with when reading a book in silence. We encourage you to think of friendship as any meaningful relationship that helps to build confidence, self-esteem and positive experiences.
During our OT sessions there are many ways that we assist your child to develop their social skills, however, we always find that skill develops faster with consistency and practice at home and school!
