This supportive social story is designed to help children develop key playground social skills, particularly those with autism, communication difficulties, or social anxiety.

Using clear, step-by-step language and visual communication symbols, the story teaches students how to successfully join in a game with their peers. It covers essential social routines such as approaching a group, asking politely to play, understanding that others might say yes or no, and managing the feelings that come with different outcomes. It also emphasizes the importance of taking turns and following game rules to ensure inclusive play.

An excellent tool for early years educators, primary teachers, and SEND practitioners looking to structure unstructured playtimes, boost confidence, and encourage positive peer relationships.

Social Skills and Playtime Social Story Bundle

This targeted bundle features four expert-designed social stories focused on navigating unstructured playtimes, a frequent source of social friction and anxiety for primary school children. Unstructured breaks can be overwhelming, particularly for autistic students or individuals with ADHD, SEND, and social-communication difficulties. Using clear, step-by-step language and visual communication symbols, each story explicitly models positive peer interactions. By providing concrete social scripts and coping strategies, this bundle helps students build emotional resilience, practice good sportsmanship, and develop essential playground friendship skills. **What is included in this bundle:** * **Joining In a Game:** Teaches students how to approach peers politely, ask to join in, and manage the outcome calmly if the answer is "yes" or "not right now." * **Losing a Game:** Validates the disappointing feelings of losing while promoting healthy sportsmanship, staying calm, and using encouraging words like "well done." * **Personal Space:** Explains the concept of an invisible "body bubble," teaching children to respect others' boundaries and express their own need for space. * **Sharing and Taking Turns:** Guides children through the process of waiting patiently for popular items like toys or iPads, offering strategies to manage waiting anxiety. A high-impact, time-saving toolkit for early years educators, primary teachers, and SEND practitioners looking to reduce lunchtime conflicts and foster an inclusive, cooperative playground culture.
