rojo27 I am a student at Colorado State University- Pueblo and am going for my elementary teaching license with an emphasis in language and liguistics along with an added endorsement in special education and I really love this lesson. This is also something I would find useful in a church lesson for teching schildren about giving of yourself for others. Very awesome! Keep it up Explore! last year
Susan Time spent in natural settings with support of others who befriend us --a recipe for feeling whole in spirit, if not in body. last year
From a clinical standpoint, hydrotherapy is one of the best natural stimulents for patients with neuromuscular and skelatal disorders. I am surprised that their physicans do not incorporate regular beach visits for these patients for their physical therapy and emotional therapy regimens. I am glad that the Explore Team arose to support the cause. Keep the CHI going boys! Aloha Mizz Laura Lee 3 years ago
This is an excellent story. There are not enough of these stories told about the light side of humanity. But I was wondering; are there similar activities for adults who have disabilities? Brad 3 years ago
