Friendship Explorer Club
Unlocking Confidence & Friendships
Our Friendship Explorer Club integrates two evidence-based programs into one fun-filled group program.
UCLA Children Friendship Curriculum: This curriculum focuses on equipping children with essential social skills. Through engaging activities and interactive sessions, participants will learn how to make a positive first impression, foster meaningful conversations, discover common interests, practice fair play, resolve conflicts, handle rejection gracefully, seamlessly join in play, and demonstrate respect for others.
Accept. Identify. Move (AIM) Curriculum: The AIM Curriculum provides children with the tools to navigate social discomfort, manage strong emotions, and overcome challenging behaviours. AIM is committed to enhancing the overall well-being of children facing these social and emotional challenges, allowing them to thrive and grow.
In our Friendship Explorers Club, children will embark on a transformative journey to build lasting friendships, develop emotional regulation skills, and unlock their full potential.
Join us today and empower your child for a brighter future!
