Using non-toxic paints mixed with shaving foam, children explored soft, cool textures with their hands, creating mesmerizing abstract shapes and blending colors in unique, magical ways. 🎶 Music for Emotional Balance The activity was accompanied by soft classical music, setting a tranquil atmosphere that encouraged relaxation, emotional expression, and inner harmony.This powerful combination of art and music therapy demonstrates the profound impact it can have on supporting autistic children—nurturing creativity, emotional growth, and overall well-being. 💡 Want to see this transformative experience in action?

📣 Η γνώμη σου θα ακουστεί και θα κάνει τη διαφορά!
