Summer Social Skills Program Overview
The Summer Social Skills Program 2026 at the Peter Pan Center is designed for children and teens who benefit from real-world social coaching in a relaxed, supportive environment. Our summer social skills programs focus on helping kids build confidence, strengthen friendship skills, and feel more comfortable navigating group situations through meaningful free play and shared experiences.
Programs are offered for children entering Kindergarten through Grade 6, as well as a leadership-based Junior Coach-in-Training (JCIT) option for teens. Groups are intentionally kept small (a maximum of 12 participants each week with a 1:4 staff to student ratio) to allow for in-the-moment coaching, modeling, and gentle guidance as social situations naturally arise throughout the morning.
Rather than relying on worksheets or scripted lessons, our summer social skills programs emphasize authentic interaction. Children practice skills such as turn-taking, problem-solving, flexibility, emotional regulation, and self-advocacy during outdoor games, cooperative challenges, and unstructured social time. Coaching is provided in real time, helping children reflect, reset, and try again in a supportive way.
The program takes place primarily outdoors, allowing children to move, explore, and engage socially in ways that feel natural and motivating. This environment supports children who learn best through experience and benefit from opportunities to practice social skills in context rather than in a classroom setting.
Families from Boxborough MA and surrounding communities choose the Peter Pan Center for its warm, relationship-based approach and long-standing commitment to helping children feel successful and connected. Full program details, weekly options, tuition, and registration information are available on our official registration page.
