My son has Sensory Integration Disorder. We’ve tried many different activities, most of which were very difficult for him. His Occupational Therapist mentioned how therapeutic music can be for sensory kids. I have a friend whose child was making great progress at A Child’s Song in the AussieRoo and Kindermusik program. She then told me that A Child’s Song offered private music lessons for older kids. This was exactly what we were looking for – one on one instruction! We have found the perfect avenue of expression where he can excel and be challenged. My son has gained so much confidence and pride through learning a music piece and then being able to perform it. He has even performed in front of an audience – which was quite an accomplishment! Piano is something that he is good at and he takes pride in. He has even begun teaching his younger cousins how to play the songs on the piano that he has learned. Music has become part of his therapy.
