A nature-based social group led by an occupational therapist, where kids build and grow up their confidence, connection, and skills through play. Groups are structured for incoming 2nd-3rd graders and 4th-5th graders. Held weekly in June and July (Sundays or Mondays), it’s structured support that feels like summer camp.
❋ what to expect ❋
This summer, Tiny Trails Outdoor Therapy is offering a small-group, nature-based experience that blends the benefits of occupational therapy with the joy of outdoor play. Each session is thoughtfully guided by an occupational therapist, with a strong focus on social connection, confidence-building, and skill development through meaningful activities.
❋ structure & schedule ❋
Families can choose the schedule that works best for them:
Sunday Sessions (June or July) 9am-12pm /1pm-4pm or
Monday Sessions (June or July) 9am-12pm/1pm-4pm
Children will attend on the same day each week, creating consistency and helping relationships grow over time (if these dates don’t work for you or your family, but you are still interested in camp; let us know and we’ll work with you on other options).
