This summer in Tajikistan many of the children IRODA works with enjoyed time at the Aqua Park. IRODA is always looking for new opportunities for children with autism to have fun alongside other children in the community. A lack of public awareness about autism sometimes makes it hard for families to go on outings with their children. However IRODA has found that going places as a group provides the support needed for children and families to try new things.
IRODA staff approached the Aqua Park earlier in the summer and organized regular days that they could come as a group to enjoy swimming and playing in the water. Some lovely summer days were then spent with children and their parents making the most of the city’s Aqua Park. The water not only provides a cool and relaxing place on a hot summer’s day but also a great place in which to learn new movement, communication, social and play skills.
Thank you for your support of IRODA’s work and being part of creating new and fun opportunities for children with autism in Tajikistan.
