We are gearing up for the best summer EVER!
 
This year, we have redesigned our summer camp programs!  We have developed a multisensory program designed to support your child’s sensory motor and language needs.  Each 3 hour camp will focus on the development of social, motor and language skills through exciting and motivating activities planned and implemented by our skilled occupational therapists and speech language pathologists. 
 
With the exception of Camp Rock, all other camp sessions will be pulling in a variety of theme based activities, as opposed to focusing on one individual theme each week.
 
 

Our summer camp programs will be running 4 days per week, either 9am – 12pm or 1pm – 4pm.  Camp programs are formed based on a child’s age and ability.  Please contact our front office staff or your child’s Talcott clinician, to determine the best fit for your child. 
 
Camp will be running the following weeks and times:
 
July 11-14th:
1-4pm
 
August 1-4th:
9am-12pm
1pm – 4pm
 
August 8-11th:
9am – 12pm
1pm – 4pm: Camp Rock
 
August 15-18th:
9am – 12pm
1pm – 4pm: Camp Rock
 
Camp Rock
Get ready to rock!  Unleash your inner rock star as we get hands on time with REAL instruments.  So grab your drum sticks and your guitar picks because we will be performing and recording our own rock songs!  This week, your rocker will leave with their very own recorded version of the soon to be, number one chart hit!  See it in action...
 

 
 
 

 

If you don't see a time that works for you and your child, let us know!  Chances are, we may be able to accommodate you!

Social and Emotional Regulation Group
This group is geared towards improving emotional regulation and social skills.  This program is appropriate for children who need to improve the ability to identify emotional regulation levels as well as children who misinterpret social situations.  These children may present as emotionally reactive or may shut down when they find themselves in an interaction they have difficulty understanding.  Coping strategies (sensory, cognitive, and behavioral) will be taught to replace maladaptive responses to dysregulating situations.  Children will also learn the language needed to navigate social situations and will be presented with opportunities to apply and practice their developing skills. 
  
Wednesday’s 6-7pm (time subject to change)
