Play Pals is designed for 3- to 5-year-old
children who would benefit from a small group setting for developing
important social skills. Using a play-based therapy the children are
encouraged in the following skills: verbal communication, cooperation,
taking turns, flexibility, and maintaining appropriate eye contact. Our
specialty is working with children who have been identified as: overly
sensitive, hyperactive, obsessive, easily frustrated, distracted, impulsive,
inflexible, anxious and/or timid. Staffed by experienced specialists
