NFAR MOM'S GROUP
Zoom Virtual Meeting
Apr. 15, 2020
6:30 - 8:00 pm
April Topic: “Discovering/Creating Social Opportunities at Home - What Can I do?”
Children need exposure to social examples as well as explanations and opportunities to practice throughout the day. Discover resources and strategies you can use with your child in your daily routines, and in new situations as every new situation comes with a new set of social expectations. Learn strategies that you can embed into your established routines and new activities that can help build social competence and take advantage of all those teachable moments!
