We hope you share this experience with your familiy & friends!

Nico ¨I loved this activity. It was a bit difficult because I needed to do things without my hands. It was diffcult to write my name and other things. But it was cool!¨

Marty ¨I was without senstion to my fingers. It felt strange because it was not easy to do easy things. I had fun today!¨

Max ¨It was a little bit difficult, some things were more difficult than others.  I could not do jump rope without my arms. The most easy was to prepare tea, I used my mouth. It was a fun way to learn. ¨

Cata ¨I feel like it was very difficult to complete all the tasks. I had fun learning!¨
