Breaks from school can sometimes mean breaks from other kids. This can be hard for kids with learning and thinking differences.

What are some ways to avoid “summer slide” when it comes to social skills and time with friends? And what are some ways to see kids in the summer, when the friends we usually see are not around?

In this episode of In It, Gretchen Vierstra and Rachel Bozek welcome Dr. Kristin Carothers, a clinical psychologist and Understood expert.

Listen for tips on helping your child maintain their social skills. And learn easy ways for your child to spend time with other kids.
