We are glad to inform you that we have started “GROUP THERAPY” from the month of January ‘09.
We learn and grow better with company. This is the rule Mother Nature follows too. For children to know the norms and rules of social interaction and appropriate communication it is important to expose them to such situations under supervision.
When children observe things with their friends they learn and enjoy it. They learn to share and give. They learn to help and ask. Research shows that children learn better when they enjoy the education process with their peers.
Hence we at NHCDC are starting group therapy for these little ones, who show concerns in appropriate communication, social skills and meaningful play
What is “GROUP THERAPY”?
This is a fun, creative group designed to support children in improving social skills, communication, and spontaneity. Children will participate in structured games, music, movement, and art activities while developing Interpersonal relationship with others and learning new skills. In addition, ongoing counseling with parents will be held to support in developing these new skills at home and in the community too!
In these small groups children will:
1) Expand expressive/receptive communication skills
