treatment of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders
Lilly Polishuk from Individualized Family Care also taught Barell students how to make cake pops!
Cake batter was mixed with frosting and coloring….
Hand-rolled into balls…
Stuck onto lollipop sticks with melted chocolate…
And iced, decorated, and placed in cellophane bags to be sent home.
There were definitely smiles all around with tubs of smooshed-up cake on the table! Hope some of the cake-pops made it home that day!
Lily Polishuk from Individualized Family Care returned to NSSA last week to lead both adult clients and Barell students in creative projects.
Adult Service clients created a red white and blue wreath out of clothespins just in time to decorate their homes for the 4th of July.
Clients painted and glued clothespins, sorted by color, and attached them to a metal frame.
Thanks, Lilly!
NSSA’s Adult Services clients let their inner artists out when a painting teacher visited them earlier this week. Lilly Polishuk from Individualized Family Care led the group in a rendition of Van Gogh’s Starry Night.
The clients, aided by staff, followed the instructor-led step-by-step instructions to create individualized works of art.
Clients practiced direction following and imitation while exercising their self-expression.
A finished product…and a proud client.
