Purim came early this year to Israeli children with special needs. The “Purim Fun” party was organized by the Kav Lachayim organization for children with complex disabilities and chronic difficult diseases.

Volunteer group Milbat brought special toys for the kids, like an organ with a giant keyboard, and a hi-tech OptiMusic system that can play music based on hand movements and light beams.

Bat El, a medical clown, said: “We are medical clowns, for us it’s Purim all year long. And to be happy – it doesn’t have to be Purim – you have to be happy always!”
