Best of All: Ralph

Participant Best of All: Ralph (shown on the right) is a new participant to the Milwaukee Playhouse and has begun attending TeenTastic. TeenTastic focuses on building social skills with friends with and without Down syndrome by participating in team-based activities in a casual and fun setting. Skill development includes understanding compromise, turn-taking, and problem-solving abilities.

Ralph has already made great strides in opening up socially when compared to his first visit to the Playhouse for the Halloween Party. He has been an active participant within the group and models his ability to stay on task. We can’t wait to see how he will continue to grow within our programs and demonstrate his Best of All!
