Summer CAMP Program

6 and 8 week classes available

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.

'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
 
  • Good Sports 1: This class incorporates basic activities and games that involve cooperation, taking turns, following and being a leader, and learning the rules and skills for simple games (ex tug-of-war, parachute games, jump rope, kick ball, Nerf hockey etc.).

Piggy-Backed Programs

RDI offers therapy services in addition to the Summer Programs. If you would like information on how OT/PT/ or Speech Therapy could also be provided before or after a summer program please contact us about your request. Scheduling is based on availability of therapists and is on first come-first serve basis.  Program fees for these services are separate/or in addition to the Summer Programs fees.  

 

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
