Welcome to Lekotek
The word "Lekotek" comes from the Swedish word "lek," meaning play, and the Greek suffix
"tek" meaning library. Lekotek is based on a Scandinavian model of early intervention and special education. Loosely translated, Lekotek means play library, but to the hundreds of families we help,
it is much more. Using adapted toys and computer equipment, Lekotek provides opportunities for kids to have fun and learn along the way. It is a safe haven from medical appointments and therapies. It is a place where there are no expectations to perform, a place where parents find resources and support.
Lekotek helps families by:
• Encouraging development through exploration and discovery
• Providing failure-free learning
• Teaching new and creative ways to make play successful and interactive
• Loaning adapted and traditional toys for families to use at home
• Providing individualized support and resources to build on existing family strengths
Lekotek is proud of the support we receive from the
Atlanta community as well as from corporations and
foundations throughout the United States.
