The Carrot Club is a social skill-building program for students ages 3 – 6. This group is facilitated by Kristin Chisum, a speech-language pathologist who specializes in social cognition. Kristin has also been a therapeutic riding instructor at Lovelane for over 20 years. Kristin utilizes our horses to model key social cues to set the scene for positive peer interactions that support social language development.
This program will help participants:
- Increase social awareness
- Develop strategies for successful social interactions, including:
- Cooperative play
- Self-regulation / “staying expected”
- Following a group plan
- “Sharing an Imagination”
- Build self-esteem and confidence
- Improve conversational skill, including turn-taking, topic maintenance, eye-contact, and body language
