PDP: Art Therapy Activities

Late May/Early June, I plan to make an Art Therapy Activity Pamphlet of an array of activities suitable for different demographics and situations. I'd also like the materials needed to be cost-effective items and found objects. This activity pamphlet will be used with Sean in July/August and the sessions documented via video to examine his interaction and enthusiasm level enabling me to discover the effectiveness of the activities.

Some links to helpful information in creating these activities:
