Help teach kids to play together at the Sensory Garden Playground's first side-by-side Play Day!
We will have games, craft activities, snacks, and more. All volunteers will be trained prior to the event from 8:30am-9:30am. The event begins at 10:00am and concludes at 12:00pm. We are looking for individuals who can help facilitate the activities/games/crafts who have energy and enthusiasm to teach ALL children to play together.
The Sensory Garden Playground has been developed by the Play For All Playground & Garden Foundation in an effort to provide a place to play for all children, especially those living with Autism or other Sensory Integrated Disorders.
