Description
Imagine being unable to ask for wants and needs or to voice concerns. Many campers feel this way, including campers who are neurodiverse or those who have speech and communication challenges. That’s where this pocket guide with bright colorful picture words can come in. With this tool, campers can point to what they need in the moment, and counselors can better understand and support campers.
Written by Certified Child Life Specialist Kathryn Hulbert, this book is organized into seven useful categories:
- Find It Fast, quick communication for feelings, yes/no, stop/go, and more.
- Sensory Needs, including too loud or too quiet, too hot or too cold, and I need to move or I need a break.
- Activities, ranging from arts and crafts and circle time to group games, swimming, and more. There’s also space for you to fill in two activities that are specific to your camp.
- Places, visuals to share where your camper is going next.
- Self-Care, hungry, thirsty, bathroom, and other basic needs.
- Things, toys, fidgets, headphones, books, and more.
- Routine, such as making the bed, brushing teeth, mealtime, cleaning up, and going to sleep.
Crafted with thick, durable pages designed to withstand daily use, this pocket guide is great for counselors who want to support all children in their care.
