A Quieter Time to Play

Sensory Time is for families with children on the autism spectrum, children with sensory processing differences, and children with other support needs.

Families have exclusive access to the north side of the Museum for two hours, creating a calmer, less crowded space to explore and play together.

Sensory Supports

Sensory supports are available during regular Museum visits, too. Families can ask our team for sensory items at any time during their visit.

Available sensory items include:

Sound-reducing earmuffs
Sunglasses
Sensory balls

Social Stories

Social Stories can help families get familiar with Imagine before arriving. Take a look at the Museum, what may happen during a visit, and what to expect during Sensory Time.

Translations

These Social Stories for diverse learners were created by Imagine Children’s Museum in collaboration with Melissa Armstrong, M.Ed., BCBA, with feedback from families, Museum staff, occupational therapists, and speech and language pathologists.
