I'm sure you can relate when I say it is SO IMPORTANT that our children participate in activities where they can enjoy being themselves!  In addition, it is also important for parents and caregivers to feel comfortable during such activities knowing they are in a supportive environment.  Below you will find some AMAZING sensory-friendly activities and resources that your family will be sure to enjoy!  Although this website is focused on NJ special needs resources, I included some activities in NY and PA as well and these "sensory experiences" are too good to miss out on if you are willing and able to travel!   

As you go through the list, you will find that some businesses offer accessibility accommodations only, whereas some offer actual events and activities.  You will also find that some offer a sensory-friendly event once or twice a year, so make sure to remain active in my FACEBOOK group as I will post these flyers when the events are scheduled.  For these particular venues, I posted the direct websites so you have easy access when the event is scheduled and their own website is updated!
