New Sensory Room Adds Joy to Abandoned Toddlers

The Tbilisi Infant House orphanage is home to 130 abandoned toddlers and infants, aged 0 to 6 years. One group of about 15 two-year olds spend most of their time in one stark playroom with very few toys.

To aid the children's social and sensory development, Foundation for Progress has created a "Sensory Room" within the current playroom. We have provided soft mats, musical and interactive toys, balls, tents, puzzles, and baby chairs. The once bare playroom is now colorful and full of items to interest the children's senses.
