Abstract
ABSTRACT Attending a day camp during summer has many benefits for children and their families. When a child has special needs, challenges may be encountered. This is especially true for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Based on nine articles selected from seven databases, the objective is to shed light on the adaptations or intervention strategies as well as the support to be offered to young children with ASD in the camp setting. Two main themes emerged from the analysis regarding the impact on children with ASD: 1) the development of social skills through specialized programmes or interventions and 2) the improvement of physical literacy through camp participation. It was also noted that training for practitioners is a key to achieving these positive outcomes.
