Prayaan

The session includes fun games, workouts to improve cognitive skills, and short speeches. The participants’ abilities are always praised. During the session, children’s videos, YouTube links, as well as other entertaining videos and games are played. Their craftsmanship, singing, and mimicking are also encouraged to shine.

Every child takes an active part in each session of Prayaan. Parents were delighted to notice the positive changes in their children within just ten sessions. They are enthusiastic about the prospect of continuing this programme. Every month, the children from the initial batch get together for a talk.

Dr. Arun Sadasivan (Montfort Institute of Advanced Studies, Bangalore) and Dr. Manjusha Warrier G (Christ University, Bangalore) led and arranged Prayaan’s sessions, where we saw the beautiful convergence of music, games, and joy. Members of the MinD trust, Krishnakumar K.K, Divya.S, and Muhammed Jabir, assisted the day-to-day progress. The initiative, which was designed for the MinD trust’s children, has flourished and gained great significance.

Prayaan’s coordinators are preparing to start the next session with a fresh group of 15 youngsters. Every child in Prayaan yearns to visit the beaches. It will be completed with the help of volunteers in their respective districts once the Covid pandemic situation has passed.

We hope to live in a community where we can help children have a decent and happy life by conquering the diseases and limitations caused by muscular dystrophy and spinal atrophy. They too like all of us have every right as well as the ability to lead a happy and fulfilling life. They have formed a group in which they can express their emotions and create connections through Prayaan. We’d like to extend our programme to other differently-abled children to provide them with a similar chance to what we accomplished here and encourage them to improve the benefits they have gained through this programme.
