UNO Social Club Ages 8-12

Play, Connect & Have Fun! 🎉

Join us for a fun-filled, welcoming social event designed especially for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) ages 8–12.

UNO Social Club brings kids together through the familiar and exciting game of UNO, encouraging connection, turn-taking, and lots of laughter in a supportive and inclusive environment.

🃏 How the Event Works

Children will take part in a round-robin style UNO tournament, rotating between small groups and playing multiple short games with different peers. This thoughtful format:

  • Keeps the experience fresh and engaging

  • Reduces pressure and minimizes waiting

  • Encourages interaction at a comfortable pace

  • Builds confidence and social skills naturally

To make things even more exciting, we’ll offer a variety of UNO games, including:

  • Classic UNO

  • UNO Flip

  • UNO Attack

  • Themed UNO decks

This allows children to explore different versions and discover their favorites!

What to Expect

  • Structured, easy-to-follow gameplay

  • Visual supports and staff guidance throughout

  • A calm, sensory-friendly environment

  • Flexible seating options

  • Opportunities to practice social skills such as:

    • Turn-taking

    • Flexible thinking

    • Good sportsmanship

  • Encouragement and positive reinforcement at every step

🎁 Prizes & Celebrations

Every participant will receive a small prize just for joining and playing—because showing up, trying something new, and having fun is what matters most!

💛 Our Goal

This event is all about creating a safe, inclusive space where kids can relax, be themselves, and enjoy meaningful peer interactions—one UNO card at a time. 🃏
