[quote=Anonymous]Op, some mainstream summer camps are less loud and less chaotic, like art camp & dance camp at studios, or camps that are mainly indoors or academic related. Those camps tend to be more structured aka less changing environments. The camps that are mainly outdoor tend to be more chaotics, more loud, more subject to change due to weather, and it may need charging of environment from one place to other places. I have 2 ASD/ADHD kids, and they both do well at mainstream summer camps. They were used to high staff/teacher ratio at school with 1:24 kids in classroom and 6: 80 kids at aftercares. They are used to loud sound, chaotics, moving around from stations to stations etc.. Summer camps have been fun to them. Of course, they sometimes bump into 1-2 kids that they don't like, and I tell them that just ignore them. One of my kid has moderate anxiety, so he sometimes stims to calm him down. And, pp is right that more expensive camps tend to be more better run and more structured. [/quote]
