The program

What a week at The BRICK Lab looks like

Twice a week after school, the same small group meets to learn one concrete skill at a time through games, movement, art, role-play, and honest conversation.

What your child actually experiences

A small, steady group

The same handful of kids each week, so trust builds fast and quieter children get real airtime.

Skills, not lectures

Every session teaches one concrete skill through games, movement, art, role-play, and story.

Take-home practice

Kids leave with a tool they can name and use, and you get a short note so you can reinforce it at home.

Warm, high expectations

Kids are treated as capable. We celebrate effort and brave attempts more than getting it right.

What you may notice at home over time

Growth looks different for every child, and no program can promise a specific result. These are the shifts families most often hope for, and the ones we deliberately practice.

Names feelings instead of melting down or shutting down
Has words for what they need with teachers, coaches, and friends
Recovers faster from mistakes, losses, and last-minute changes
Walks into new situations with less dread and more curiosity
Handles friendship bumps without it derailing the whole week
Uses one or two calming strategies without being reminded

From our pilot sessions

Real moments from the small groups that tested this program before it launches in January.

Two children working together to set up a line of colorful dominoes — Setting up a domino chain or building a tower takes patience, turn taking, and steady hands. One block at a time, together. One gentle bump of the table, and the blocks tumble.

Two children stacking wooden blocks into a tall tower as a team — This tower stands because both builders kept adjusting. We saw moments of frustration when it fell, and the tools each child used to regulate and reconnect.

The practical details

January is our upcoming launch session. We are finalizing exact dates, pricing, and the meeting location, and waitlist families will be the first to receive them.

Upcoming January session

Our first cohort launches in January. Exact dates and enrollment details go to the waitlist first.

Two afternoons a week

After-school timing, twice weekly, so skills get practiced and repeated rather than heard once.

Pickup from Greenfield School

Pickup from Greenfield School is available, so your child goes straight from dismissal to group.

Ages 6 to 10, in person

Kids are grouped thoughtfully by age and readiness, in a small in-person group.

Have a scheduling constraint or a question about fit? Add it to the note field when you join the waitlist. We read every one.

Groups are small on purpose. Waitlist families hear everything first: dates, times, pricing, pickup logistics, and the window to enroll.
