Hi! We want to share with you how the children with autism of the School Program in face-to-face and online celebrated Halloween in our facilities.
For starters, the children with ASD of the Online School Program disguised as farmers, enjoyed the show of their friend "Pichurris" who is a clown diagnosed with autism and told all the children to pursue their dreams; they ate pizza, sweets and spent a fun day accompanied by their peers and teachers.
The next day the students at the face-to-face School Program attended dressed in fun costumes, enjoyed a delicious pizza, sweets, had fun in the bounce house and broke the piñata.
Ian, a student at the face-to-face School Program, upon seeing the bounce house a day before the celebration said excitedly "Look, the bouncy house for tomorrow!"
On the other hand, to raise awareness in our community about autism, we created a filter for Instagram called "Blue Pumpkin", with the aim that when children went out to ask for sweets on October 31st, the community knew that if a child carried a blue pumpkin, they were likely to be in front of a diagnosed child and could be verbal or non-verbal.
Thanks to you, we can continue working to promote inclusion and improve the quality of life of children and young people with autism.

¡Hola! Queremos compartirte como los niños con autismo del Programa Escolar presencial y en línea celebraron el Día de la Cosecha en nuestras instalaciones.
Para comenzar, los niños con TEA del Programa Escolar en línea se disfrazaron de granjeros, disfrutaron el espectáculo de su amigo “Pichurris” quien es un payaso diagnosticado también con TEA y comentó a todos los niños que persigan sus sueños; comieron pizza, dulces y pasaron un día divertido acompañados de sus amigos y maestras
Al día siguiente los alumnos del Programa Escolar presencial asistieron vestidos con divertidos disfraces, disfrutaron de una deliciosa pizza, duces, se divirtieron en el brincolín y rompieron la piñata.
Ian, alumno del Programa Escolar presencial, al ver el brincolín un día antes de la celebración dijo emocionado “¡Mira, el brincolín para mañana!”
Por otro lado, para sensibilizar a nuestra comunidad sobre la presencia de autismo, creamos un filtro para Instagram llamado “Calabaza Azul”, con el objetivo de que cuando los niños salieran a pedir dulces el 31 de octubre, la comunidad supiera que si un niño portaba una calabaza azul era probable que estuvieran frente a un niño diagnosticado y podía ser verbal o no.
Gracias a ti, podemos continuar trabajando para favorecer la inclusión y mejorar la calidad de vida de niños y jóvenes con autismo.
