Join Wildwood and Wonder Stream™ this summer for an adventure rooted in inclusion, exploration, and the natural world. With a combined mission to provide programs and natural experiences for children with developmental delays, mobility needs, speech needs, autism spectrum disorder, sensory needs and more. Each class creates a supportive environment where children can explore, create, and experience joy at their own pace. Led by a trained team of pediatric therapists and Wildwood instructors who understand neurodiversity and individualized support needs, our program ensures every child feels included and valued. With predictable routines, visual schedules, and sensory-friendly spaces, Wonder Stream along with Wildwood Staff will help remove the barriers that often exist in traditional extracurricular activities. Parents can feel confident knowing their child is safely engaging in enriching experiences that foster confidence, connection, curiosity, and a lifelong respect for the natural world.
