084 - Helping Your Child Get Along with Other Kids in School

Discerning Parenting

In today's episode, we dive into a topic that concerns many parents: helping children navigate social interactions at school.
While some kids naturally make friends easily, others may find it more challenging—and that's perfectly okay. Every child, whether outgoing or shy, has the potential to connect with their peers. Making friends is a skill that can be learned and nurtured, not something that happens automatically.
Join us as we discuss practical tips from Teacher Roxanne Sevilla, co-owner, co-founder, and program director of Nook Learning and Play Hub, on how to support your child in building friendships and making school a joyful experience. Whether your child is just starting or is already in school, this episode will offer valuable insights to help them thrive socially.
