Virtual Summer Camp | Beach Bash

Virtual Summer Camp | Beach Bash — Behavior Frontiers

Grab your surfboard and hop into your beach buggy, because we're having a Beach Bash and you're invited!

Welcome to our third week of Behavior Frontiers ABA summer camp! This week, we're in a tropical state of mind with our beach-themed Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) summer camp program!

Join us - virtually - on this epic voyage from anywhere along the shoreline - real or imagined!

Be sure to follow Behavior Frontiers on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and Pinterest for more DIY crafts for kids!

Enhancing Fine Motor Skills with DIY Beach Crafts for Kids

At our Denver Autism Care Center, we incorporate simple crafts for kids in our ABA curriculum.

This easy kids craft is fun and builds on our kiddos fine motor skills. This craft includes tasks such as cutting, gluing, painting, and drawing. These tasks improve upon hand-eye coordination and the precision of small muscle movements.

Have your kiddo tap into their inner beach explorer by creating these fun jellyfish decorations at home. Our autism care center in Denver put together step-by-step instructions. Make sure to share your craft on social media when you finish and tag @behaviorfrontiers!

DIY Jellyfish Beach Crafts for Kids

STEP 1Gather all materials: colored tissue paper, glue, paint, scissors, paint brush, paper plate, and googly eyes.
STEP 2Cut the tissue paper into 1-inch-thick long strips.
STEP 3Cut the paper plate in half.
STEP 4 Paint the half paper plate and set it aside to dry.
STEP 5Flip over the dried plate and add a line of glue to the bottom.
STEP 6Carefully place strips of tissue paper to represent the tentacles.
STEP 7Flip over and add googly eyes. Optional: Take a marker and draw a mouth!

Make Colorado (or Wherever You Call ‘Home’) Feel Like the Beach!

Even though Denver doesn’t have beaches, you can bring the beach to your home!

(After all, jellyfish can’t survive on land – they are ocean animals!)

Set up a small pool in the backyard, fill it with water and sand toys, and let your kiddos splash and build sandcastles.

Create a beach atmosphere with beach towels, umbrellas, and tropical snacks like pineapple and coconut.

Keep your child's creativity flowing with free printable PDF coloring book pages!

You can even have a beach-themed picnic with a blanket and some kid-friendly summer tunes!

Embrace the Beach Vibes Before Bedtime

After a long day of exploring the sand, sun and sea, it's time to catch some zzz's!

Our behavioral therapists in Denver, Colorado selected a few good bedtime stories featuring seaside adventures. Encourage your young explorer to wake up tomorrow ready to "seas the day"!

A World Without Limits in Autism Care

Finding seashells on a beach is an act of discovery and wonder. Similarly, creating a world without limits for children with autism involves discovering and unlocking their hidden potential, talents, and abilities.

At Behavior Frontiers, we help kiddos shine by discovering their strengths and providing them the skills they need to thrive!

Empower your young explorer to discover their own limitless potential! Enroll with us today!
