💼 What the programme involves

To help autistic children with special needs such as training and educating children with intellectual impairment in the areas of early intervention, specialization in skill development, social integration, and career development. Volunteers will spend most of their time in the day-care room working with autistic children When working with the local staff you will be required to assist them in providing basic exercises and therapy treatment for children. The staff will guide you and help you understand the need of each individual child When caring for the children, you will soon realise that despite their disabilities they are simply regular children who want to play and have fun as much as any other child does! Volunteers are encouraged to share their love, patience and enthusiasm through playing and educating with games, music and arts. Group activities with the children through songs or games always have a positive impact on interaction development. While playing and interacting with the children volunteers must set a positive example and remember to be firm with misbehavior to help them understand what is right and wrong.
