Therapeutic Group Activities
Therapeutic Group Activities
All Little Wonders' group activities are open to the general population. Our focus, however, is on children with special needs.

All therapeutic group activities are designed to stimulate physical development and promote emotional growth while developing social skills. Eric J. Pollock, MSPT, a licensed physical therapist, will lead these groups.
Each group is offered once a week one-hour per week for eight-weeks. Participation will be limited in number to allow for direct interaction and focused attention to each child's needs.
Instructors will be available for one on one discussions
Therapeutic Group Activities require an initial screening.
An adult may be encouraged to actively participate and interact with their child.

These activities will help children process information from their visual (sight), auditory (sound), tactile (touch), vestibular (movement sense), and proprioceptive (muscles and joints) systems.
