Family, school and friends all shape how a child feels around others. Discover activities that encourage cooperation, respect and self-confidence.

Adults can support them by setting gentle boundaries and making space for everyone to be heard. Here you’ll find ideas for activities at home and in groups that foster safe, supportive relationships without pressure to be perfect. Notice how your child feels in different settings and look for ways to make it easier for them to join in.
