some new things based on parent requests and we always will look at
special requests for programming. For more information, or to schedule

These programs
will focus on the development of play and social interaction skills
using a combination of Sensory Integration and Floortime
techniques, as well as sensory, motor, and speech and language
development. They are designed for children who could use additional
practice in these areas, or have IFSP, IEP or personal goals related
to the above-mentioned areas. Children will be grouped by age and
skill levels to ensure that appropriate programming is provided.
Typically-developing peers will also be integrated into our summer
camps as appropriate and available. Although described as
‘camp’ specific goals for each child will be addressed.

for you and your child. Areas of focus may include such
things as pre-vocational skills, self-care and functional
skills, academic and social needs, as well as augmentative
communication use if needed. Call to discuss your needs
with one of our staff members to develop an individualized

service but will be mutually agreed upon before beginning
any services.

Handwriting Programs:
Is your
child struggling with completing classroom assignments
legibly? Do teachers have difficulty reading your child’s
handwriting assignments because of poor letter formation or
spacing? Does your child hold the pencil using an awkward
grasp? Does your child push so heavily when writing that he
breaks pencils, pokes holes through paper, tires easily, or
complains when writing? The following handwriting programs
use a multi-sensory approach to build and improve
handwriting skills. The First Strokes and
Fine Motor Olympics will also be incorporated to
work on strength, coordination and the development of
skilled hand movements.

'Good’
Sports Groups |
|
Does
your child struggle in gym, on the playground, or in local
sport-oriented programs? Does he or she need additional help to
develop better coordination, timing, and the ability to
participate on a team? Is it harder to be a friend, make
friends, and to develop skills that help maintain friendships?
Children with sensory integration disorders, learning
disabilities, Asperger’s Disorder, ADHD, or other developmental
or neurological conditions can be challenged in many social
situations.
These
groups are designed to help kids learn to participate in social
activities including athletic activities, group games,
tabletop/sit down games and have appropriate conversations with
peers. We work with each group to help them collaboratively
plan activities, get the necessary materials and then
participate in what the group has chosen. A big emphasis is
placed on developing appropriate conversational skills by
challenging the kids to ask peers questions, listen to what they
say, and then respond appropriately based on what they have
learned from their friend. Sharing, waiting your turn, conflict
resolution, and problem solving in social situations are also
addressed. All classes staffed by an
OT. 5 classes-1 1/2hr each |

Individualized Programs |
|
The P.L.A.Y. (Play and Language for
Autistic Youngsters) Project™ is a set of programs
designed to provide individualized interventions for young
children with autistic spectrum disorders. It is under the
direction of Richard Solomon, MD, who
has over 15 years of experience working with young children with
autistic spectrum disorders and their families. The goal of the
project is to help young children and their families obtain
interventions that are based on the approach of Stanley Greenspan,
MD and his DIR (Developmental, Individualized and
Relationship-oriented) model. The P.L.A.Y. Consultant provides
regular home or center based visits and uses videotape technology
to give families detailed guidance about ways to implement
the DIR/Floortime model. We also have a variety of on-going groups
available to work on these same skills with peers. Please contact
Project Coordinator Maureen Kane-Wineland PhD., OT/L for more
information.
PLAY
Partners:
One essential way to help your child integrate new skills into his
or her repertoire is to practice using Floortime strategies on a
regular basis. Some families find it very helpful to have ‘play
partners’ come to their home to assist them in providing more
‘play sessions’ per week. These partners are supervised by an
occupational therapist trained in the PLAY Project who will assist
them to identify the strategies most appropriate to use with your
child. We have found this to be a very effective way to expand
the therapy program in the home and provide parents with some
needed help. Please contact us if you would like further
information on this program.
FLOORTIME THERAPY SESSIONS: For families not interested in the
entire PLAY Project, but wanting to incorporate more of the
Floortime/D.I.R. model into their program individual therapy
sessions can be scheduled at home or at our clinic. These sessions
will use strategies designed by Drs. Greenspan and Wieder to
facilitate the highest level of development in your child based on
the levels identified on the Functional Emotional Assessment Scale
and some include parent coaching, but not videotaping. More
information on this model can be found at
www.icdl.com or
www.floortimefoundation.org. Please contact us if you would
like more information on this option. |

Interactive Metronome:
This innovative program combines the concept of a musical metronome
with a patented system that accurately
measures and improves a person’s rhythm and timing. By improving this
fundamental ability, the individual learns to plan, sequence, and
process information more effectively. Current research on this
program has suggested positive impacts not only on the underlying
motor coordination and timing, but also on focus and attention, sport
performance, and some academic areas. For more details regarding this
research and a video demonstration of the program see
www.interactivemetronome.com. This is an intensive program that
requires a commitment of 2-3 therapy sessions per week for 3-5 weeks
for maximum benefit. In some cases this may be covered by insurance or
a private pay rate can be arranged. Contact us if you would like
additional information on this program or help determining if your
child would benefit from this. |

Parent Testimonials from Previous Groups:
"I can't say enough about the summer
programs! We could see great improvements in his social and
communication skills. He really enjoyed his "group" and looked
forward to going. He didn't realize he was doing work. He thought he
was going just to have fun!"
- Mother of a 5 year old boy
"The summer groups helped my son's social
skills to really emerge! I always knew that he wanted to play with
others but could just not figure out how to make him interact with
kids his own age. Through the many fun activities, such as
making ice cream, mazes that could be set up and crawled through,
and of course, lots of water play (my son's favorite!), his playful
nature really shined through! He learned turn taking skills,
cooperation in a small group setting, and best of all, that it was
fun to play with others! I think the biggest gain that we have seen
is how much fun we are now having with him as he continues to play
and socialize with all types of people."
- Mother of a 6 year old boy
