The Incredible Years: Social Emotional Group
OhioGuidestone is offering The Incredible Years: Social Emotional Group for children ages 3–5 this summer at its Lorain location, 2173 North Ridge Road. Sessions will take place on Fridays from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. beginning June 5 through August 7, 2026.
The program provides hands-on, play-based learning experiences designed to help young children better understand their own emotions and those of others while building important school-readiness and peer-interaction skills. Children will explore emotional awareness, managing big feelings, following directions, and developing positive friendship skills in a supportive environment.
