Guest guest Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Hello everyone, I'm new to the group and can't believe it's taken me this long to discover y'all. I've learned so much in just this first week! Does anyone know of a theater or music program I might look into for my 8 year-old son? He is very verbal and has a great passion for acting and music, but his sensory differences keep him from fitting into a group focused on neuro-typical kids. The one time we tried an acting program for ASD kids, it did not give him enough opportunities to try out his love of performance. On so many levels, I haven't been able to find resources that fit his situation and our recent theme is that we're " falling between the cracks " . Thanks in advance for your help.
