This group was created for special needs children aged 6 and under, developmentally delayed and their parents and siblings, to play together and socialize. The idea is that so many of our children need extra work and attention. Meeting other parents of special needs children can be great because they understand each other, and can help each other in many ways. I imagine we all have a lot in common. Children with special needs are especially in need of social skills. Why not develop them together …
