After 6 trips in the last 5 years, I have finally put together the MUST-HAVE Items for you to take with you on your next trip to Disney World. Traveling with a child who has Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), Attention-Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) or on the Autism Spectrum (ASD), can be overwhelming. I find the best way for EVERYONE to…
UPDATE: Able to join virtual queue and RIDE in May 2021! Updated review below! EDIT: Trip in February 2021, unable to join Virtual Queue to Ride. Triggers: Multiple stages of ride which can cause anxiety and sense of unknown for child, dark moments, bright lights and loud noises. Small drops, car movement. Pro: Sets are incredibly intricate so it is…
I am so glad you are here! This website for me is a labor of love, because it all started within my own family. And what’s more love than a Mom and Dad’s love for their kiddos?! My name is Beth Roberts and I have three amazing and uniquely different kids. One of who just happens to be on the…
Triggers: Bright colors with movement, Loud music, swift movement (no restraints) Pro: Original Disney characters make this a safe, easy, fun ride. No actual dips/drops (simulated waterfall only) Exit: You can opt out and wait on the other side of the exit gate if the child is 8 years or older We were SO excited to experience this new attraction…
We were so excited to have the opportunity to visit SeaWorld Orlando! I read how it was a newly Certified Autism Center and wanted to learn more about what that looks like in person. So we tacked this visit to the beginning of our Mom and Son Disney trip! We were incredibly lucky to have a childhood friend of mine,…
Like most everyone here in the United States, we are now faced with extended spring breaks and potential for school closures longer than anticipated. And like most other parents, we MIGHT be trying to figure out how the heck we are going to manage! We are lucky in that we can work from home, and I know others are scrambling…
Is your sensory kid in a traditional school setting? Or in a private school? Or even homeschooled? No matter which learning environment you have chosen for your child, these tools will be GREAT in aiding their learning needs and techniques. Let us know below if you have used any of these and how they have worked for you! Reminder, always…
Not sure about you, but I definitely don’t fight the crowds on Black Friday…or maybe because we just don’t have a mall near us! But give me a good online Black friday or Cyber Monday deal and I’m IN. Bonus, when I can score some great Sensory items that I know my child is looking for for Christmas! A few…
Triggers: n/a Pro: Interactive story telling, able to move around Exit: Due to moving between 3 rooms, exit is possible, but if you feel this is not a good fit for your child, I would just avoid the attraction. This is definitely more of an attraction than a ride! Enchanted Tales with Belle is just as the name would suggest,…
Triggers: Wait can be long before entering large amphitheater type room Pro: Super funny jokes, animations! Exit: Due to length of show, I would suggest if your child wants to opt out last minute, that your entire party (or at least one adult), wait with them through the exit doors. We don’t always hit this attraction on our visits, but…
