On April 2, a group of "children from the stars" and their families, led by volunteers, came to the Chimelong Ocean Kingdom Whale Shark Pavilion to see the "star fish".
According to reports, in order to meet the visual and psychological needs of children with autism, help them open their hearts, and stimulate their nerve cells in a "dormant" state, Chimelong Ocean Kingdom invited families from Zhuhai Child Protection Association, Zhuhai Autism Mutual Aid Association, and Zhuhai Blue Crystal Spirit Fusion Education Support Center to come and paint whale sharks and listen to dolphins sing.
Volunteers from the Zhuhai Children's Protection Association said that for children with autism, the significance of travel is not to relax, play in the mountains, or broaden their horizons, which is essentially another kind of training in life, which can help them constantly adjust and adapt to a variety of new environments, to face various unexpected situations, and learn to calmly contact the wider external world according to requirements.
The children who participated in this activity were between the ages of 6 and 12, and they drew under the guidance of the art teacher, expressing their thoughts and sees with art.
Teacher Mai of Zhuhai Blue Crystal Spirit Integration Education Support Center said that the children saw blue whale sharks, white fat white whales, and cute penguins, close to nature, and special healing. The children were able to communicate with each other and their interactions increased. "It's a picture we're very much looking forward to seeing. It is hoped that the public can pay more attention to the various groups in society and respect and tolerate them. ”
