[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you need to initiate 1:1 or small group playdates to build a closer friend network, if you think your DD is more classmates with her peers than friends. I would start there. That said, parties are getting smaller as kids move up in elementary so she just may not make the cut right now. I don't do home parties because my home is not large enough for a ton of kids but even what we do has changed. In Kinder it was a My Gym with the whole class, now in 2nd grade we did a small craft studio with 10 kids. Home parties DD has gone to have between 5-10 kids max. So start with playdates that YOU are taking the lead on to help foster closer friendships if she needs a boost might help. I also do not think it is a terrible thing that kids learn that not everyone gets invited every time....[/quote]
