Little Ducklings Friendship Circle
Kindred Connections Society
This is a group for children ages 3-5 and their parents. Friendship Circle focuses on supporting young children with skills for self-regulation, empathy, attention and social skills. The 30-minute adult-led session helps children learn to play and participate in a structured environment.
Parents of children participating may be asked to participate with their children at times and must be present for the whole session.
Once the 30-minute session is over, children and their parents can stay for the next 30 minutes for free play and coffee.
This is a drop-in service, and no registration is required!
