Through activity testing and participation in adapted physical activity, we want to help develop the family's competence and abilities to be able to support the child in activities in the local environment.
Toddlers 2-4 years
Target group
The target group is children aged 2-4 years with various disabilities as a result of illness, injury or congenital conditions.
We only have a doctor present during the day, and it is 150 kilometers to the nearest hospital. The child must therefore be in a medically stable situation and clarified with regard to epilepsy, heart, lung and allergy/anaphylactic reactions with a need for emergency medical help. The referring doctor must believe that it is medically justified for a stay at Beitostølen Health Sports Center.
Objectives and content
The stay lasts 2 weeks.
The goal of the stay is to give the children general activity experience, joy of movement and increased skills, as well as give the family an early introduction to the use of current activity aids.
The program consists of 2-3 activity sessions and a gathering time daily. In addition to the daytime program, activities and a social program are provided in the afternoon and evening. The activities take place indoors and outdoors.
Parental guidance, information and education play a central role in the stay. The whole family is therefore invited to participate in the stay together.
Siblings of primary school age are offered homework help with a teacher during this period. It is important that the work plan from the school is included.
Local professionals are invited to attend professional days at Beitostølen Health Sports Center during their stay. Read more about the professional days .
