Camp Trinitas

Camp Trinitas is the perfect opportunity to have children gain new skills or maintain recently-learned motor and academic skills. Children will participate in gross motor, fine motor, sensory-motor, and recreational activities, and academic time during our 9th annual Camp Trinitas. Sign up for a ½ day (AM or PM) or a full day. Allow your child to participate in a camp directly organized and supervised by skilled OT, PT, and speech therapy clinicians in their respective fields. Camp Trinitas addresses each child’s specific needs. Scholarships available.

 

LEARN TO RIDE BIKE LESSONS

Children will learn this vital childhood skill in a non-competitive environment with a highly trained therapist. Sessions are run in 60-minute periods of time. Dates and times are individually scheduled. Children typically require between 1 and 3 sessions.

 

SCRIBBLES TO SCRIPT HANDWRITING PROGRAM

An opportunity for children from preschool (prewriting) through elementary (cursive) school to work with an occupational therapist and participate in multi-sensory fine motor, visual-motor, and visual-perceptual activities to learn pre-writing skills, proper letter formation, and writing within the given lines using the Handwriting Without Tears® program. Help to reinforce learning and make writing fun!

 

SOCIAL BUTTERFLIES

An opportunity for children to work with a speech & language therapist and engage in activities to address turn-taking, topic maintenance, appropriate question asking, and following non-verbal cues.

  • All programs (except for full or ½ day camp) are offered 1-2 x per week, for 45 minutes, from July 1st – Aug 16th.
  • Our programs and/or group therapy sessions are a great alternative to individual therapy. They give children the opportunity to address key developmental areas in structured but busier environments that are more reflective of typical real-life home and school situations.
  • Please call for times and pricing.
