Pre-K/K Readiness
Summer is the perfect time to work on back-to-school skills and what better way to support child development than through music? Our team of board-certified music therapists bring over a decade of school-based and developmental knowledge to this one-of-a-kind program!
​
Children will sing, play, and dance, all while working on critical regulation, attention, social, and pre-academic skills that will support them in the new challenges that come in the Pre-K and Kindergarten environments.

Songwriting
Children and teens face many daily challenges that impact their social/emotional well-being. From moments of great stress come great art and our team of music therapists helps channel those stressors into positive products.
Dynamic Lynks' songwriting camp is the perfect place to let challenges, and successes become incredible music! Writers will work together to create original songs using their talents and recording technology while creating social connection and processing through mental, emotional, and physical wellness needs.
​
The week will culminate in a writer's round to celebrate each original piece of work!
​
Maximum of 8 participants
Musical Theater
Musical theater is a form of artistic expression that can be celebrated by all individuals! We will let our creative juices flow as we explore our range of original musicals and musical theater history. Campers will engage in music making, dancing, singing, and acting throughout this program.
The goal of this 2-week program is to connect and engage with our peers as we work towards a performance of one of Dynamic Lynks' original musicals or a musical of our campers creation!

Social Skills Rock!
Social programming at Dynamic Lynks always uses a neuro-affirming and strengths-based approach to support social/emotional learning. Campers will learn age-appropriate strategies for engagement and fostering healthy relationships with a focus on self-monitoring and expression!
​
The best part? We get to rock n' roll! Campers will work on social skills, emotional regulation and emotional expression through active music making, songwriting and instrument play, all while bonding and socializing with peers!
