MAC in Dezember 2007

In Ladakh are many holidays at the moment, therefore we had only two ore three children at the MAC during the last weeks. With six therapists they got the chance for a very specific treatment.
Besides learning how to wash hands before lunch, as a new ritual we integrated the brushing of the children's teeth after lunch. Most of them are not used to this healthy habit, so they had bleeding gums in the beginning. But most of them obviously enjoyed it and they did very well.
For about one week we had a new child at the MAC. Stanzin is a blind boy who really loves to get in touch with someone. So after a little shyness he especially liked the singing, clapping of hands and getting in touch with the others.
To make the most of the warm winter sun we always go out after lunch for dancing and playing ball all together.
