First activity of October in full formation :)

Jacis has a lot of partners in the community of Rezekne. Between this is also the "Angels with us" Associations that, last Thursday, organized a trip for the kids with autism to Untumi, right outside of our city.

 

Together with other 4 volunteers from the Jacis, we participated too in this trip in order to help the organizers with the running of the activities. It was a beautiful day, warmly and sunny. The idea of the day was to present a methods of therapy for the autistic kids, more exactly the therapy with dogs. So we took part of an interesting representations of a fourth dogs that were very happy to show us their talents. They were so cute :). 

Also, during the next three hours the dogs did a very good job: they stood among kids, playing with them, making laughing, and taking care of them (and vice versa as you can see).

 

We, as a volunteers, we played with the kids, took care of the dogs or even taught them to cook bread on a stick (Good job Moritz! It was so delicious!)  It was so pleased to see this children happy, and their smiles filled our day of joy and gratitude.
