BIA Clubhouse: Where Friendship Rules: March 2012

The Clubhouse is the Behavioral Intervention Association's (http://www.bia4autism.org) after-school program. Once a week, children between the ages of 5 and 12, who have communication and social challenges, meet and engage in fun activities to practice different social skills. The Explorers focus on skills such as staying with the group, greetings, turn taking, participating independently in activities, and brief exchanges with peers. The Adventurers focus on skills such as initiating and maintaining conversations, perspective taking, and negotiating with peers.

The Explorers: Last Winter Session (Rainy Day Fun and Magic)

Today was our last Clubhouse winter session. As always, we were a little sad since we won't be able to see our friends during the Clubhouse break. We learned many new games and engaged in new activities. Here are some of our favorites: Hip Hop Following Directions, Bop 'til you Drop, making playdoh, pine needle painting, and marble tube painting.
