Many children with 7q11.23 Duplication struggle with social skills, initiating and maintaining social conversations, and developing friendships among peers their own age.
I came across this short video and thought it might be an idea that would be helpful to families. Perhaps it could be adapted to fit your child and their needs and interests (Legos, Star Wars, Polly Pockets, etc).
Budget constraints and access to supplies may be factors when determining the scale of your group. Participants could also contribute supplies or bring their own for each meeting. The possibilities are endless.
The You Tube video would not load in blogger, so HERE is the link:

Duplication Cares is committed to supporting families with children diagnosed with 7q11.23 Duplication Syndrome, as well as being dedicated to raising awareness in the medical community about the existence and treatment of this disorder.
