Simone Frame is an excellent clinician. She is reliable, professional and very friendly. Kids feel…read morecomfortable with her right away. My daughter was struggling with reading-decoding and comprehension skills. By the time she was in third grade, she was behind. Simone worked with her diligently and brought her up to grade level. With Simone, Ellie jumped from learning to read, to reading to learn. I can't thank her enough. Today, Ellie is getting ready to take the SATs and apply to competitive universities across the nation. I truly believe that Simone's help in literacy changed Ellie's academic trajectory. Thank you, Simone! Ellie still talks about the birds that poop seeds on the mountain.

GiGis is a non-profit organization for persons and families with Down Syndrome. It is run and…read morefunded by volunteers and the programs offered are excellent. GiGis gets together with Madison Area Down Syndrome Society for playgroups now and then to connect more families. They also have a small library of a sort with books ranging from children's to adult. We also attended a Fitness, Family and Friends class which was great for kids. There were only two children with Down Syndrome (my daughter included) but the volunteer teacher and other volunteers were amazing with my girl and tried very hard to get her to engage more. She was still enthralled with the toys at the center, so we only got her to do fitness for a few brief seconds. However, I really enjoyed it. My other daughter walked in and was so amazed at the fact that there were other people that looked like her sister, I loved meeting other families in many different stages of parenting their child or adult. I truly wish I'd had this resource as a new parent, but love that it's available still now and for years to come. The volunteers know that these children tend to run at their own speed and make it a fun experience for parents, children and siblings. Can't wait for more time here!

There's an art party (holla, holla)…read more It's really a simple formula, but it works for me as a parent. Drop child off at Art Party Place. Pick up said child three hours later. Child comes home happy and with a pile of craft projects. Rinse and repeat for one week. Owner Susan Gardner used to hold craft camp each summer at her home in Waunakee. I heard about craft camp last summer from a neighbor and signed my daughter up, not knowing what to expect. My daughter had a blast and the price was very reasonable. A win-win! Fast forward to the summer of 2013 when Susan opened Art Party Place in a nearby office park. It's a fun little shop full of cool crafting supplies (that's what my daughter tells me, and she's the expert when it comes to crafting). You can enroll your child for a half day (three hour) or a full day (six hour) session. Each day has a different theme with different projects. I've watched Susan in action at craft camp and she is energetic and engaging. The camp participants definitely seem to enjoy themselves. So if you live in the Waunakee area and are looking for a kid-friendly activity, consider Art Party Place.
