Since playing encourages children and adults to use their imagination and develop their motor skills, DTFAL launched its Second Community Event in Batroun. Our children and their parents had a wonderful day at Euphoria Garden where they enjoyed the animation show, physical activities and celebrated their friend's birthday. The event was honored by the presence of Ms. Elise Al khoury from the and DOS Alumni.
