Yes. Although we currently have no statistically proven scientific data to make a claim, we have received numerous anecdotal responses from caretakers of special needs individuals. We have heard that the game and method has been used successfully with individuals with Autism, Down’s syndrome, and individuals with mental and physical challenges. In fact, many stories reported back to us tell of not only being able to play the game and have fun but of an “opening” in the underlying process that the individual has leading to increased interpersonal relationship between the caretaker and the “special” music student.
If you have a special story about an educational experience you were involved in using the Music Wizard Academy with a special needs individual, please share your story with us at specialneeds@musicwizard.com.
