A Kid’s Guide to Making Friends

Friendship is an invaluable aid to children in their early development. Though often taken for granted as an instinctive character trait that naturally evolves as we move along the spectrum of maturity, engaging with others and developing a sense of belonging should be a part of every child’s early development portfolio. It is in these early years where positive influences can have the greatest impact on individual social and emotional development. The effects of these early engagements are life-long and often manifest into emotionally healthy and stable adults. The Kids’ Guide to Making Friends is intended to reinforce the importance of friendships and provide early learners a road map for engaging with others in a meaningful and civil manner.
