The video on the left was created with examples in the UK but it relates to children with challenging behaviour every where.

Extra Curricular Activities

Extra curricular activities offer health benefits, possible scholarships, possible travel experiences and they are important to the overall development of children.

This site offers a list of activities and we encourage you to allow your child to try at least one activity.  While the activity might come as an additional expense, there is nothing more worthy than an investment in your child's future.
