Research has shown that significant gains can be made in social development through Lego play therapy. Group Lego building provides a medium through which children with social and communication disadvantages can be taught to interact effectively. Through a variety of activities, games, and social skills lessons, children learn and practice appropriate social behaviors within a small, structured group setting. Skills are practiced weekly and incorporate an incremental, targeted approach. Data is collected for each child throughout every session so that progress can be measured from week to week.

Please note that our classes have been modified due to COVID-19. Children are appropriately distanced and safety/cleaning protocols are in place. The majority of our games and activities have not required a significant change, however, our cooperative Lego building has been modified. After planning their cooperative build as a group, each child builds their contribution to the project. Each child receives their own personal box of Legos so that there is no sharing of materials.

Our clubs target the following skills:

Making Friends

Listening Comprehension
