Online Social Groups for Kids 

At Northern Lights Academy, we believe every child deserves community—a place where they feel seen, heard, and valued. We understand the importance of connection and friendship in a child’s life. However, not every child has the opportunity to create these bonds in person. Our online social groups bridge that gap, providing a welcoming space where kids can meet and grow alongside their peers—no matter where they are in the world.

Through engaging activities and guided interactions, our online social groups are designed to meet kids wherever they are, offering opportunities to connect in ways that fit their unique circumstances. With the freedom and flexibility of connecting online, whether your child is part of a worldschooling family, navigating medical complexities, living in a remote area, or simply seeking a flexible way to build friendships, NLA provides a supportive, engaging space that is a convenient and accessible way to build friendships and explore shared interests. 

Connecting Kids, No Matter the Circumstance

Building friendships can be challenging for kids with medical complexities or those living in remote areas. NLA’s online social groups bring connection right to them. Through live, interactive sessions, children can meet peers, share interests, and form lasting friendships—all from wherever they are. With caring facilitators and a supportive environment, every child can connect, belong, and thrive.

Friendship Without Borders

For worldschooling families, adventure often comes at the cost of consistency in friendships. NLA’s social groups change that. Kids can form lasting connections with peers, no matter where they are. Whether your family is exploring new places or setting down roots, our groups provide a sense of stability and belonging.

Every session is hosted live, bringing together children from around the globe. The result? A community where young minds learn about different cultures, perspectives, and ways of life—all while fostering deep, meaningful friendships.

Ready to give your child a stable friendship circle on the go? 

Connecting Through Shared Passions

Kids light up when they share their passions with others who truly understand. At NLA, we offer social groups that allow children to explore their interests—whether it’s art, science, gaming, or storytelling—alongside like-minded friends.

These passion-driven groups spark creativity, collaboration, and a sense of belonging. Families love that their children aren’t just socializing but also learning and growing through meaningful connections.

Help your child find their people. 

Our online social groups offer a unique learning opportunity for children to develop essential social skills in a guided, supportive environment. While the groups are educator-facilitated, the focus is on empowering children to take the lead in their interactions, practice communication, and engage with peers in meaningful ways. This approach creates a safe space for all kids, including those who find making friends challenging, to build confidence and form connections at their own pace. Our facilitators provide structure and support, ensuring every child feels comfortable and supported as they navigate group dynamics and grow through collaboration.
