Many children want to connect with others but need extra support learning how to join a group, take turns, handle frustration, and build friendships with confidence. Super Sprouts gives children opportunities to practice these skills with guidance, encouragement, and coaching from experienced pediatric professionals.
What Is Super Sprouts?
Super Sprouts is a children’s social group program focused on helping kids develop the social and emotional skills needed for successful peer relationships. Through playful group activities, guided interactions, and structured routines, children learn how to:
- join play and stay engaged with peers
- practice conversation and social language
- take turns, share, and cooperate
- understand personal space and social boundaries
- improve flexibility and handle unexpected changes
- manage frustration and emotional regulation in group settings
- build confidence in friendships and group participation
Super Sprouts is designed to feel fun and natural for children while still being purposeful and goal-driven. Every activity is structured to support skill development in ways that translate into daily life—school, sports, birthday parties, playdates, and community activities.
Who Is This Social Group For?
Super Sprouts is ideal for children who may benefit from extra support developing social skills, peer relationships, and group readiness. This may include children who:
- have difficulty initiating play or conversation with peers
- struggle with turn-taking, sharing, or cooperative play
- become overwhelmed in group settings
- have challenges with transitions or changes in routine
- experience emotional outbursts, frustration, or shutdown in social situations
- have difficulty reading social cues
- need support building confidence with friendship skills
Many families seek social skills support for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), ADHD, and developmental delays, but participation is not limited to any single diagnosis. Super Sprouts is designed to meet children where they are and help them grow through connection, coaching, and repeated positive practice.
What Skills Does Super Sprouts Help Build?
Social interaction involves many developmental skills happening at once—communication, emotional regulation, attention, flexibility, and play. Super Sprouts supports skill-building in key areas such as:
Social Communication
- starting conversations and responding to peers
- asking questions and showing interest in others
- staying on-topic and learning back-and-forth conversation
- using appropriate tone, volume, and body language
Friendship & Play Skills
- joining group play appropriately
- cooperative play and teamwork
- sharing, turn-taking, and patience
- problem solving during play and conflict
Emotional Regulation in Social Settings
- coping with losing a game or not getting their way
- managing frustration in a healthy, age-appropriate way
- learning calming strategies and flexible thinking
- support for transitions and unexpected changes
These skills are foundational for long-term success—not only for peer relationships, but also for learning readiness and classroom participation.
What Happens During a Super Sprouts Session?
Super Sprouts sessions are designed to feel fun, supportive, and structured. Children participate in group activities that encourage connection, interaction, and communication—with coaching and support built into the flow.
Sessions may include:
- structured greeting routines and group check-ins
- interactive play activities that encourage teamwork
- movement-based games to support engagement and regulation
- guided social practice (conversation skills, asking questions, responding)
- cooperative building projects, pretend play, or group challenges
- social problem-solving and conflict resolution coaching
- closing routine and positive group reflection
Group routines help children feel safe, know what to expect, and build confidence over time. This creates a positive environment where children can practice social interaction without fear of being judged or left out.
Why Social Groups Are So Valuable for Children
Many children can practice social skills in 1:1 therapy, but group settings provide something different: real peer interaction. Super Sprouts allows children to practice social skills in a natural, supportive group environment where social learning can happen in real time.
This type of setting helps children:
- build comfort and confidence around peers
- practice skills repeatedly in a realistic group environment
- learn social boundaries and expectations through guided support
- develop a more positive relationship with social engagement
For many families, participation in social groups can be a bridge toward smoother experiences at school, improved playdate confidence, and stronger peer relationships.
