Children aged five to eight were taught social and motor skills in a fun way at a camp organised by the Lexicon Rainbow Therapy and Child Development Centre.
The camp was held in small groups of five children, each with two skilled facilitators. The activities were aimed at enriching the motor and social skills of the young participants. All the activities were conducted in a playful method, using greetings, understanding and using non-verbal gestures.
Activities at the camp included lacing, sewing, pincer grip, scooping, balancing and core muscle strengthening.
The pandemic restricted the social interaction opportunities of children and loss of physical school routine significantly impacted their academic skills. Lack of access to free outdoor playing has also affected development. The camp aimed at addressing these gaps.
The Lexicon Rainbow team assists and guides children as speech and language therapists, occupational therapists, special educators and ABA therapists, making these services easily accessible to parents and their children.
Lexicon Rainbow is dedicated to helping kids with Down’s syndrome, intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, learning disabilities like dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, speech and language disorder. The teaching approach is completely based on the concept of neuroplasticity, in which the brain has the ability to continuously form new connections and learn.
All activities at Lexicon are designed to address the individual needs of each child. Each task is designed to balance the other and aimed to address all these areas of development for holistic learning.
“Lexicon Rainbow isn't a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic, accepting neurodiversity, appreciating differences, promoting holistic development and tapping the true potential of a child,” said Isha Soni, Centre Head and Senior Occupational Therapist , Lexicon Rainbow Therapy and Child Development Centre.
