Mud Club is an online occupational therapy provider for kids and teens (7-18) across Canada. Our mission is to empower neurodivergent youth through play, fostering growth, confidence, and social connections. Led by therapists, we run goal-oriented gaming sessions in Minecraft and VR to build emotional regulation, problem-solving, collaboration, and digital literacy skills. More than just therapy, Mud Club is a virtual hangout where players level up real-world skills, forge friendships, and gain independence—all while having fun. At Mud Club, we turn play into progress.

OUR KIDS review of Mud Club
Play is the best therapy for kids, a principle at the heart of Mud Club. This online-only program is the product of nearly twenty years’ evolution by co-founders Janie and Lucas Pearson, who blend creativity with technology in their unique occupational therapy programs. Virtual reality, coding platforms from Minecraft to Java, and collaborative play form the basis for programs that feel like an adventure for participants, even as they’re learning. Perhaps the real benefit is the vibrant online community that springs up around each program, where kids with exceptional needs meet, play with, and learn from each other. Each program is tailored to kids’ unique strengths and interests, rewarding their contributions and helping them grow in confidence.
