Last week, YahalomNY invited siblings of children with special needs to a pizza and paint party in the Five Towns. The event began by playing a get-to-know-you game, followed by pizza and soda. For the activity, each child received a canvas which they painted on their own, or with the help of an instructor. The event concluded with the children enjoying the backyard equipment.
The event was spaced over two days to accommodate both boys and girls, and almost every yeshiva in the Five Towns participated. Yahalom looks forward to hosting more events like this in the future, to continue to give siblings of children with special needs focused attention.
