These are skills that you need when interacting with others. There are certain ways we all must behave if we want to have fun and to have others like being around us. For example, we must take turns, share, be patient, be respectful, listen, talk positive about others and be friendly. Interacting with people who do not use social skill is difficult. Imagine a person who will not share, gets upset easily and refuses to play by the rules. Does that sound like a difficult situation?

Participating in activities could cause you to have many feelings such as: belonging, acceptance, and confidence. Activities can help you to make friends, feel good about yourself and do many things that you could not do on your own such as win a team sport or complete a major project.
