and physical exercises, the program aims to enhance motor skills, improve coordination, and
foster self-confidence.

Program Goals:

activities.
2. Promote Cognitive Development: Use movement to stimulate cognitive functions, including
attention, memory, and problem-solving.
3. Encourage Social Interaction: Foster social skills and teamwork through group activities.
4. Boost Emotional Well-being: Provide a positive outlet for emotional expression and reduce
anxiety or stress by promoting self-confidence and autonomy
5. Increase Physical Fitness: Promote overall health and well-being by encouraging regular
physical activity.
