Nature-based learning uses nature to teach a variety of academic concepts. We take items that can be seen on a walk outside or while exploring a pond to develop a better understanding of the world around us. Our goal is to build language, science skills and array of other skills using nature as the core.

Our camp centers learning around books to develop novel vocabulary while also encouraging skills related to reading. This may include developing phonological awareness, reading fluency, and reading comprehension. While our learning centers around the development of language and literacy, we also incorporate learning related to science, math, art, and beyond. Nature offers so many wonderful learning opportunities.

This camp is designed to be inclusive. That means children from all backgrounds are welcome. Children who may not have speech or language delays will still learn new vocabulary and comprehension skills and get them ready for returning to school.

No. Insurance cannot fund the camp. In some instances, we will have group therapy sessions and can provide a superbill to use to seek reimbursement from your insurance company. Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) may cover the cost of day camps.

Our staff is equipped to work with children with a range of developmental needs. Feel free to contact us directly with specific concerns. Of note, children with mobility differences may have challenges navigating some of the terrain we will use, but we are here to support them.

During our week at camp, we aim to incorporate a variety of learning opportunities. If your child has an IEP, we are happy to review that information and use it as a guide for engaging your child.

We will provide a daily summary of the activities completed during camp. At the end of the week, you will receive a summary with ideas to continue to engage learning at home.

We currently accept Medicaid and private-pay with a superbill for one-on-one therapy options. Schedule a free consultation to discuss these options in the calendly link above.
