We continue to work with children with special needs. June 22 matinee was held dedicated to summer. The hall was decorated for a summer theme; the walls were decorated with carvings, hand-made paintings. Children sang, danced, and played accomplishing with musical instruments. All songs were performed with piano accompaniment. At the end of the holiday each child was presented with a gift.

During the group sessions the children develop social competence - they learn to interact with each other, make friends, follow the instructions of adults in a group - what is the goal of our work. During summer period all sessions are held in the form of games to repeat the studied material and also to bring in elements of the summer. Also in June, children without disabilities began to visit the program, they learned about our center for reviews of other parents.
