School holidays sound fun… until the lack of routine sends neurodivergent kids into sensory and emotional overload. This guide breaks down why holidays are harder, practical ways to create structure at home, and how Total Communication’s evidence-based holiday programmes can bring calm, regulation, and meaningful engagement back into your child’s day.

This holiday season, turn playtime into a powerful language-learning experience. Designed by therapists, our Language Stimulation Through Pretend Play Programme helps children aged 4-7 build communication, imagination, and thinking skills through purposeful fun. 

This holiday, give your child the skills to learn smarter and thrive. Our 4-day Executive Function Skills Holiday Camp helps students aged 10–16 strengthen focus, planning, and emotional control through engaging, evidence-based activities, empowering them to become confident, independent learners.

Does your child read well but struggle to explain what they’ve read? Or speak in short, unclear sentences? Our Visualizing and Verbalizing programme helps children build mental images, connect ideas, and express themselves with clarity. Find out how this structured approach supports language growth. 

The Visualizing & Verbalizing Programme builds comprehension by helping learners form mental images from language for better understanding.

Wondering how to improve your child’s skills this holiday? Check out the Seeing Stars programme for an exciting, skill-building experience!
