Participants engage in semi-structured routines that blend high-energy exercises such as obstacle courses with sensory-rich experiences like tactile exploration, proprioceptive challenges, and vestibular stimulation. Through these activities, children not only enhance their motor skills, coordination, and strength but also refine sensory processing, self-regulation, and social interaction abilities. New!!

This creative and supportive community provides a safe and nurturing space for adolescents to socialize while exploring various arts and crafts. Goals and Objectives: 1. Creativity and Self-Expression: The primary goal of the group is to encourage socialization and self-expression among adolescents. It provides a platform for young artists to freely express their thoughts, emotions, and ideas through art. 2. Confidence Building: Adolescence can be a challenging period for self-esteem and confidence. Social Art aims to boost participants' self-confidence by interacting and receiving positive feedback from peers and mentors. 3.
