Your child's social skills are a very important aspect of development. You can help develop these skills by providing opportunities for your child to interact with other children his/her age. While many opportunities are provided in the school setting, many more can be offered away from school. Some ideas include arranging playdates; participating in baseball, basketball, football or another sport; and attending community functions. If you need additional ideas please contact the Family Resource Center at 615-237-3821 ext. 5464.
