Did you know that zebras each have a unique pattern to their stripes? Although they all look the same, each is unique and different…just like your child!
Zebra Camp is a therapeutic social skills summer camp that is 1 week long, running from 9 am to 3 pm. At Zebra Camp, we strive to identify and work with your child’s unique strengths and weaknesses to help them achieve the best possible quality of life! Zebra Camp groups children together by age and ability level. There is an elementary, junior high, and high school camp. The concepts are the same in all camps, however the difficulty level and activities are different. If you are unsure about which camp your child should attend, please give us a call! In addition, if your child is new here we will conduct a free social skills screening test to help determine your child’s needs and goals for camp.
Zebra Camp will instruct your child in:
Body language
Facial expressions
Tone of voice
Conversational skills
Turn taking
Responding to peers
Conflict resolution
Identifying and self-monitoring emotions
Heightened awareness of others
Expressing thoughts and ideas appropriatel
Monitoring verbal comments
Humor, figures of speech, and more!
Each camp is custom tailored to your child’s needs. Goals that need more attention are addressed more intensely, the skills they can do well are just reviewed. Children will be provided direct instruction as well as having some time to play and interact with peers. A report will be written after camp summarizing what your child was taught and the progress they made throughout the week.
