Our Self-Regulation Superstars group focuses on teaching self-regulation skills through play based activities to children to help them to better understand and manage their emotions and behaviours. We use a variety of evidence based strategies including visual supports, routines and structure, positive reinforcement, modelling self-regulation, practicing relaxation techniques, and sensory strategies. The goal for all children in this group is to increase self-regulation skills in order to better interact with their peers and succeed in school and other social settings.
