"I am thrilled that this book exists. As a clinical psychologist in
private practice, I often see children that need some help learning
and practicing social skills. I love this book because it allows me
to give families a tool to practice on their own outside of
therapy. It is full to the brim with lively, engaging, and
effective activities and interventions for children and parents.
Social skills are a part of a child's life that are often
overlooked. Natasha beautifully integrates various techniques to
address social skills deficits in the most important areas. These
activities are wonderful ways for parents to learn how to better
interact with their children based on their child's social
competency. This is a MUST HAVE for kids, parents, and
teachers."--Dr. Allison Solomon, Psy.D., PC, Director of the
Virtual Center for Anxiety and OCD
"If your child struggles to make friends, misreads social cues, or
has difficulty listening and making conversation, get a copy of
Social Skills Activities for Kids today! Natasha Daniels has
created a book of fun, interactive activities that kids can relate
to. Most importantly, this book normalizes kids' challenges and
validates their feelings while helping them build important social
skills."--Sharon Martin, LCSW, psychotherapist and author of The
CBT Workbook for Perfectionism
"Natasha Daniels' Social Skills Activities for Kids is a warm,
child- friendly compilation of activities to help elementary school
children and caregivers master the essential skills for making and
keeping friends. Natasha knows how to engage her young readers in
this thorough, interactive, fun workbook that teaches important
behaviors such as having manners, communicating at a friend's
house, sharing, compromising, and more. In fact, this book is so
useful, I am adapting the activities for teens and adults who
struggle with social skills. This workbook offers useful strategies
for teachers, parents, counselors, occupational therapists, and
anyone else who wants to assist children in navigating the
sometimes anxiety-provoking arena of successfully making and
keeping friends, at any age."--Belinda Seiger, PhD, LCSW, Director,

"One of Natasha's many talents is that she speaks Kid Language. In
a friendly, easy-to-understand manner, her words motivate and
encourage, normalize and educate. Social Skills Activities for Kids
comprehensively addresses the many and varied tricky social
situations that kids of all abilities and backgrounds encounter at
home, at school, and in the community. Children will feel respected
and supported by the caring warmth that jumps off the pages and the
cheerful illustrations that will appeal to all ages. This is an
excellent resource for families and for any therapist's
toolkit."--Yael Clark, Educational and Developmental Psychologist
