Let’s Play
We’re delighted to welcome you to apply for a place on our new upcoming parent and child group Let’s Play. The key aim for this group is for children and parents to have fun together. However, we also hope that our activities will help families to:
Build attachment with their child
Support children to regulate emotions/feelings
Parents will learn new therapeutic play skills
Children will build a positive sense of identity by meeting other adopted children/families
Parents will meet other families/make new friends

The group takes place at our Edinburgh office, once a week for 4 weeks. We ask if you do accept a place, that all 4 sessions are attended.

Most of the activities are done in pairs, so we would ask that one adult attend per child. The groups are appropriate for children aged 0 to 6 years old. Children will be matched to a group with other children of similar ages.
