Down-syndrome community, especially children have been neglected and not enough attention has been given to them. They are among the most needed community yet very have they gained help. Down-syndrome children are universally known to be very loving and caring group of people. They get along well not just among themselves but towards normal people around them as well. Many establishments had been opened to house special need children specifically those with Down-Syndrome. An amazing aspect of Down-Syndrome children that many of us can learn from is that they are very open to learning new things every day. Syllabuses were designed to fit the ability and capability of the children. From daily chores to complicated puzzle solving games, they managed to learn and master everything on their own. However despite the rigorous activities and learning process made for these kids, many establishments are lacking in experts to help and assists them. As the children are growing their interests in reading, special care houses need to keep up with their evolution and this is where ORKIDS are left behind. A make-over of their reading corner will surely help in gaining more interest and strengthening the already existing ones into reading, which will be beneficial to lives of the Down-Syndrome children.
