This music therapy video with a child with special needs illustrates the following:
The motivational power of music can be used to help a child with special needs learn and use communication skills such as the PECS system http://www.pecs.com/
Home made instruments can be made and adapted to address specific therapeutic goals such as bilateral coordination and using arms while in a neutral position
I include a bonus chapter on my DVD that demonstrates how to make three home made instruments and use them in fun and therapeutic ways with children with special needs https://www.therhythmtree.com/store
Using a slap clap pattern while engaging a child in music can energize the music and lead to more of a connection with that child
Following your client's or child's lead while making music can help him or her stay engaged and motivated
