Sensory Saturday/Sunday

Museum programs designed specifically for neuro-divergent children and their families

Museum Sensory Programs

Many museums across Florida hold Sensory Programs in order to make their activities available to everyone. Many for example hold a Sensory Saturday or Sunday once a month where activities are altered in order to make them available to neuro-divergent children who may have not been able to attend otherwise.

The Daniel-Chase Foundation's goal is to collaborate with these museums in order to implement 3D printing, robotics, and STEM into their programs while still prioritizing a safe environment for learning. Thanks to all of the museums we have collaborated with so far and we hope that we can partner with more!

Want to volunteer for us or get your museum implemented with our program?

How Our Programs Work

1

Partnership

We collaborate with museums to identify sensory-friendly opportunities and adapt their existing programs.

2

Adaptation

We modify STEM activities to be accessible and comfortable for neuro-divergent children, considering sensory sensitivities.

3

Implementation

Our volunteers work alongside museum staff to deliver engaging, educational experiences during sensory-friendly hours.
