Playgroups For Kids With ASD In Massachusetts?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi! My name is Cori and I have a son Braden almost 5 that is diagnosed with ASD. I would love to join a playgroup. Even if I had to drive a distance, a weekly playgroup would be wonderful! Thanks, Cori
I live in Maynard Ma which is abt 30 mins outside of Boston

Does anyone have a son or daughter around my son's age almost 5yrs old, near Maynard Ma.? I would love to find new friends to have playdates with. Maybe meet at a park or a fun place to play. If anyone is interested, I have the whole summer off with my boy, Braden. Thanks!

Whey my son was 3-7, I tried to put him in music classes, sports, gymnastics (explaining his diagnosis and my concerns and asking for their support). It is amazing how accommodating most adults can be. When he turned 8, we found the program of Special Olympics a good fit and continued participating in cub scouts, to the best of our ability.

Thanks alot! We'll try it. He loves to try new places and it sounds like a Braden Place:) Lots of sensory things to do? Great! Thanks again!

I do not know of any playgroups but we take our kids to Senseability Gym in Hopedale, it is a great place for the children to play and the parents to talk while they are doing it.
