Summer play can be more than just fun, it can also be a gentle way for children to connect, express themselves, and build confidence. ☀️
For children who experience anxiety or selective mutism, activities like bubbles, art, sensory play, outdoor games, and quiet shared moments can create opportunities for connection without pressure.
Progress does not always have to look like speaking. Sometimes it looks like joining in, staying nearby, making eye contact, smiling, pointing, or simply feeling safe enough to participate. 🤍
