Special Olympics Young Athletes is a sports and play program for children with intellectual disabilities, ages 2 to 7 years old. It introduces basic sports skills like running, kicking and throwing. Aiden participated in this while he was in preschool. He was always such an active kid so I thought he would enjoy this. Well sports aren’t just about being active. They’re also about following rules and directions, taking turns, etc., a lot of things that Aiden just didn’t have the ability to really focus on at that time. There were some activities he would participate in for a little while but he mostly just wasn’t ready for something as coordinated as this was.
