Participating in this therapeutic activity not only allows them to fulfil a dream but also brings a huge sense of fun, enjoyment and achievement. Skiing helps promote co-ordination, balance, movement control and general health and well being. It enables the children to develop their functional abilities and to reach their full potential, so improving their independence and quality of life. All of these children have special needs and sadly there is no cure for many of the conditions they have, but all will benefit from this chance to develop themselves, it will give them the opportunity to reach for their dreams http://icecoolkids.homestead.com/index.html
