Camp Sensation is a camp for children of all ages who have been diagnosed as on the autism spectrum. Children with Down syndrome or sensory processing disorder can attend as well. At Camp Sensation, the children are encouraged to try out a lot of new sensations. These sensations can involve cooking, playing with interesting textures, listening to music, or trying new smells.
Does a child you love, one with distinctive learning challenges, need this summer camp?
Camp Sensations is a place for autistic children to feel at home.
Often, children on the autism spectrum are easily overloaded with new sensory information, so Camp Sensation gives them a place to be themselves and do what is fun and comfortable to them. Their activities at the camp might not be accepted in normal society, but in reality, these activities can be very calming to those with autism.
At Camp Sensation, children with disorders like Abigail’s as well as others with autism, Down syndrome and other diagnoses, get the chance to experiment with different feelings, sounds and smells.

Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
