Be Proactive vs. Reactive this Year
Here’s an article from the Parenting Special Needs magazine called Be Proactive vs. Reactive this Year. So many times our schedules can get booked and for children this can be overwhelming. By having your month organized ahead of time, you can make sure to schedule the activities that are important and leave the unimportant activities off the schedule.
Fun events for children with special needs
I saw this article and had to post. It has some different events that take place in Southwest Florida for kids with special needs. Check it out.
I want to highlight this:
Fort Myers Miracle
Hammond Stadium, Lee County Sports Complex » 14100 Six Mile Cypress Parkway, Fort Myers » miraclebaseball.com
The Fort Myers Miracle and the Dave Clark Foundation will hold their 10th annualSpecial Needs Baseball camp in April. The Miracle team and coaches teach the kids a variety of baseball skills like hitting, throwing, catching and fielding as well as playing baseball games with them. The event, which includes lunch, is open to children up to age 18 and is free to participants and their families. For more information, call Ashley Adams at 768-4210 or email aadams@miraclebaseball.com.
and I also thought this was interesting. I know the Surfers for Autism events take place all over Florida.
Surfers for Autism
Surfersforautism.org
Statewide program that has a surfing day on Fort Myers Beach each fall.
Let me know if there are any other events for kids with special needs. Email me at scottrussell@tfamail.com
