Looking for a supportive program for your child?
As featured in U.S. News and School Library Journal, Game Lab’s Social Skills program is fun, sensory-friendly and screen-free, and designed to help kids connect, grow, and thrive.
Your child will build confidence, friendships, and real life skills through our immersive Dungeons & Dragons gameplay.
OUR SOCIAL SKILLS SETTING
Sensory-friendly space
4:1 child to instructor ratio
Neurodivergent accommodating
INDIVIDUALIZED SUPPORT
When children arrive, our staff help them transition comfortably into the gaming space and review their goals for the session based on information gathered from parents during intake.
Our experienced “Dungeon Masters” then guide each group through a collaborative Dungeons & Dragons adventure, where children practice social, emotional, and executive functioning skills while working together to solve problems and overcome challenges.
With a 4:1 student-to-staff ratio, our team provides individualized support throughout the session, including movement breaks, emotional coaching, and ongoing encouragement tied to each child’s goals.
Parents receive regular updates highlighting their child’s progress, successes, and areas of growth, and we’re always ready to discuss ways to support your child’s unique needs.
PROGRESS THROUGH PLAY
As they play, we help children:

Identify triggers that lead to emotional dysregulation
Recognize over- and under-reactions to situations
Manage transitions, frustration, and unexpected changes more successfully

Cope with delayed versus immediate gratification

Follow multi-step directions with greater confidence
Build executive functioning skills including planning, organization, flexibility, and task completion
