Art therapy and autism/asperger: wich exeperiences in primary school?
Hallo!
Anyone know experiences, special projects, articles, web sites etc. about the application of art therapy on child with autism or asperger syndrome in uk primary school (or other european countries)?

my oldest son has AS and he loves art; art has helped him tremendously! It helps him to relax and express himself. I taught my son art myself, by teaching him the basics, taking him to museums, tapes, watching art programs. And my son painted the most beautiful look alike of Vincent VanGogh’s Starry Night!.
here are some the sites that might help you: good luck!
