Join Kevin Merrigan from The Power of Speech for an interest-based hangout and social group for kids ages 9-13. The topic for this month will be: Super Mario! Come hang out and connect with other kids who love Super Mario, too! Kids are welcome (but not required) to bring along a favorite Super Mario-themed item to share - whether it’s a toy, a book, or anything that sparks their interest.

Space is limited to 12 kids ages 9-13, and registration is required. Please register below. Caregivers are welcome to stay and support/observe or drop off and browse the library during their child’s class.

The monthly Hangout Hub is a chance to meet, play and hang out with others who share similar interests, developing friendship skills and giving kids opportunities to share something they love to do. Each class will offer accommodations that support all learning and interaction styles.

Kevin Merrigan is a local school counselor and the Community Outreach Coordinator at The Power of Speech who loves supporting kids in their quests for fun, friendship and play!

This program is sponsored by The Power of Speech, a private practice in Marblehead which provides speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy and parent/teacher consultations.
