Short story, rhyme and Lego activity
This program is intended for individuals with autism, sensory processing disorder and attention differences. This program is inclusion friendly. We'll read a short story and assign participants to different roles to complete a Lego task. The program encourages strong development of motor skills, socialization skills while having fun with others. The exact same program will be repeated in the evening for individuals unavailable for the daytime session.
