Last week, Laughlin speech language pathologist Amanda Byerly hosted the first Playtime Pals event! It was a huge success and the kids had a blast finding creative ways to play in so many ways. All play activities had a intentional focus on social skills and language development.

There are still two sessions remaining (Friday July 24 and Friday August 14)!

According to Child Mind Institute, parent support groups can provide:
1. A sense of community and understanding
2. Emotional support during difficult moments
3. Trusted resources and practical advice
4. A safe space to vent and celebrate victories
5. Deep friendships with people who truly “get it”

Read more from Child Mind Institute’s article “How Parent Support Groups Can Help”

Whether online or in person, these groups help parents feel less isolated and more empowered as they support their children and find the tools they need to thrive.

At Laughlin Children's Center, we’re proud to offer parent support opportunities including:
💡 Child-Adult Relationship Enhancement (CARE) Training
💡 Unlocking Your Child’s Potential: A Parent’s Toolkit for Thriving with ADHD

Finding the right community and tools can make all the difference for families and caregivers.
