When working with children*, they use a variety of games, hands on activities and visual aids during our sessions to engage children and youth of all ages. When working with youth and children they strongly encourage parent(s) to join the session for the last 10 minutes to share successes and take aways from the session.
*Please note the first session is dependent on the child's age and is usually parent(s) only.
