We had a great start to the term across our Minecraft social groups!

Each group explored different activities and themes, with participants showing creativity, teamwork, and lots of enthusiasm.
Hereโ€™s a look at what some of our groups got up to:

Some groups began with a short book read or story prompt to spark creativity and help participants think about what they wanted to build this term.

Across the groups, participants began planning and starting their bases. Each group took a different approach, including:
-Colourโ€‘themed builds where each player used a chosen colour in their design
-Starter shelters and home bases for survival-focused groups
-Underground hideouts and secret base designs

One group kicked off their Rainbow City challenge, where participants used colour-themed plots to begin shaping their own city space. They even revisited last yearโ€™s big pink town hall and discussed upgrades.

Overall, it was a fantastic week full of engagement, creativity, and collaboration. Weโ€™re excited to see how each group continues developing their worlds and ideas as the term goes on!

Our Dungeons & Dragons social groups offer so much more than an adventure on the page. D&D naturally mirrors realโ€‘world social dynamics, making it a powerful space for participants to explore social growth skills like empathy, teamwork, and selfโ€‘control.

But what truly makes this experience meaningful isnโ€™t just the game - itโ€™s the ๐ฌ๐š๐Ÿ๐ž, ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ง๐œ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž ๐ž๐ง๐ฏ๐ข๐ซ๐จ๐ง๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ wrapped around it.

In our sessions, neurodivergent adventurers can:

โœจ explore different social roles at their own pace
โœจ practise communication through story rather than pressure
โœจ express their authentic selves without judgement
โœจ build trust with others in a structured but flexible setting

When participants feel safe and supported, the story becomes a bridge - guiding natural interaction, shared creativity, and genuine social connection.

At Minds At Play, we believe social growth happens most naturally when individuals feel safe to be their authentic selves.

Thatโ€™s why our social groups are designed to be supportive, inclusive spaces where participants can:

โœจ express themselves freely
โœจ connect with others who celebrate their individuality
โœจ explore communication at their own pace
โœจ build confidence through shared imagination and teamwork

When participants feel genuinely accepted and encouraged, moments of laughter, connection, and engagement start to flourish- just like Ben hears each week from his sonโ€™s Dungeons & Dragons Social Group.

Weโ€™re honoured to create environments where every adventurer can grow socially, build meaningful connections, and feel proud of who they are.

Our Dungeons & Dragons social groups begin with character creation, giving participants a safe and supportive space to settle in and start their adventure.

In Week 1, everyone can explore who they want to be - from heroes and healers to storytellers and adventurers. Participants choose their characterโ€™s personality, strengths, abilities, hopes, and motivations, helping them feel more connected and confident before the journey begins.

As they shape their character, participants also build social confidence through gentle choiceโ€‘making and group interaction. Theyโ€™re invited to express themselves, share ideas, collaborate with others, and explore communication at a pace that feels right for them. Our facilitators guide each participant with care, ensuring they feel supported and empowered every step of the way.

Every adventurer brings their own unique spark, imagination, and strengths to the table - and we celebrate each participant for who they are and how they choose to engage. Weโ€™re excited to begin another term filled with creativity, connection, and shared storytelling!

โ€œExcellent way for an otherwise isolated child (12) to interact in a supportive and fun way. I thought the twoโ€‘hour sessions would be too long, but my child is so excited for D&D day. He loves interacting with the other participants, happily waits his turn, and follows along with the story. Itโ€™s been brilliant โ€” and weโ€™ve signed up again for 2026.โ€

One of the biggest strengths of our online social groups is ๐š๐œ๐œ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐›๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ. By meeting online, participants can join from the comfort of their ๐จ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฌ๐š๐Ÿ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐š๐œ๐ž, removing many of the barriers that can make inโ€‘person groups overwhelming.

Without the added stress of travel, unfamiliar environments, or sensory overload, participants can focus their energy on what truly matters -๐ž๐ง๐ ๐š๐ ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ, ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ง๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฌ๐ก๐š๐ซ๐ž๐ ๐ž๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ข๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž๐ฌ. Being in a familiar space supports regulation and confidence, making it easier to follow the story, take turns, and build meaningful social connections at their own pace.

Our facilitators intentionally create a ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž, ๐ข๐ง๐œ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž environment where participants feel safe to participate, observe, or step forward when theyโ€™re ready. Seeing families notice this growth- and choose to return - means so much to us.
