and more!!!
As opposed to last year's schedule, we will be having one full 2 hour session for the children to enjoy all of the different games, stations and activities!
Children will be paired with students and friends of the UCF DPT program, called "buddies," to supervise and encourage the fun among each other. Parents are welcome to enjoy the fun as well!
-
Inclusion
Activity Day is designed to include children of all abilities. Our buddies have the compassion and energy to facilitate a fun day for any child that would like to join us.
We will have tents to provided shaded escape from the Florida sun, low-stimulation areas for more quiet activities, and games will be adaptable and flexible so every child may have their turn.
