I want to share with you a book on social skills I'm finishing up with G, Social Skills Activities for Ages 6-7. This book is geared for kids 6-7 years old or 1st - 2nd grade. Since this is an activities book, it is consumable so if you are wanting to use it with multiple children I would recommend getting one for each of them.
This workbook contains 75 activities or exercised for children to practice various social scenarios, helping them understand right and wrong! I like that the activities are hands-on and that there is a lot to discus together. Activity topics include making new friends and being a good friend, playing at your house or going to a friend's house, and etiquette for the classroom, lunchtime and playground just to name a few.
Above you can see an example activity.
As a homeschooler not all the activities were a perfect fit; however, we do attend a weekly CoOp so it was easy to apply them to that day or just discuss proper behavior in multiple situations. G is a little on the older side for this book but I have really enjoyed having him work through it. He is a fantastic reader so he has no problem reading the instructions and completing the activities fairly independently. I like that it includes practical things like using scissors and pasting and I particularly enjoy the conversations we have with the various activities.
