Summer Computer Camp

Lekotek provides a unique summer experience for children with disabilities, their siblings and/or friends.  Using diverse software and input devices, children benefit from independent and group participation. 

Camp offers a break from the "therapy" routine.  Campers experience fun-filled, challenging activities that develop literacy, communication, fine motor, cognitive, and recreational abilities.  Children with and without disabilities play and learn together in an environment that facilitates success.
