Welcome to Virtual Brain Camp for Kids!

We can’t be together in person, but that doesn’t mean we still shouldn’t have fun and learn about the brain together! Here at brain camp, we will learn all about hydrocephalus, shunts, the brain, and how it all works. Enjoy learning through videos, activities, books, and special guest speakers. Each of the activities has a link to everything you need in order to do brain camp at home!

Have fun and we look forward to being together in 2022!

Kids Camp Director

Hi! My name is Ashley Leidholt and I am running the Kids Camp for HA CONNECT this year. This is my 3rd time being at conference and I LOVE all of the connections I get to make and kids I get to work with. When I am not working for hydrocephalus, I am a 1st grade teacher. My husband and I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota and are expecting our first child in October! I am thankful for this opportunity to continue the kids camp virtually this year and look forward to seeing everyone in person in 2022!
