Autism Day Camps

Partnering with the Little Turtles Autism Training Center, we are offering day camps to kids with autism. On April 19, we had children 2 years to 5 years old. On April 26, we had teenagers 14 and older. On May 10, we will have children 6 years to 13 years old.

 The kids ate snacks.
 They made crafts.
 They had times to draw and/or color.
 This young man wrote a poem about thankfulness.
This was the art center table.
 Dion is instructing one of the teenagers in his group.
 Paper airplanes!
It was great to see this family again. We have been to their home several times.
 Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! The sandwiches were a hit.
 Shirley led the reading and singing center with the "You are Special" series by Max Lucado.
 Volunteer Dan is playing blocks with the kids.
These volunteers all come from the caregiving training school where Dayna works.
Kevin (translated by Kristi) led a discussion about the uncertainties of the future. The mothers expressed that there is nothing offered for the children in the future.
This is the group from April 26.
