“Let’s Learn and Have Fun Together!”
Unique Prints offers several types of group sessions at various times during the year.
Benefits to group therapy at Unique Prints:
- Children learn social skills and interact together.
- Peer modelling can enhance therapeutic gains.
- Class sizes are kept small to ensure individual attention for each participant. Feedback is provided at the end of each group session so parents will know how their child is progressing.
Types of Groups Offered:
Alert Program for Self-Regulation
The Alert Group teaches children to monitor their alert level so they can achieve a “just right” alert state. The result? Increased confidence, better school performance, an d more enjoyable to be around. The  program contains clearly defined steps that teach self-regulation awareness in a fun and entertaining way.

Cursive Handwriting
This group uses Mary Benbow’s “Loops &  Other Groups” program to teach children the proper technique for cursive handwriting in a simple and fun way. It won’t seem like work when children learn to write the “Loops & Other Groups” way! Group size is kept small to ensure individual attention within the group setting. |
Fine Motor
The Fine Motor Group focuses on building preparatory fine motor skills for kindergarten through fourth grade children. Fun and creative activities are used to develop foundation skills. Because of the small group size, the individual needs of each child are addressed. Fine motor group is great fun and teaches important skills for improved peer interaction and success in school!
