Sensory Friendly & Social Story

Sensory Friendly Play

Children with sensory needs can experience the Museum at a quieter, calmer time when we are closed to the public. These are offered Mondays from 12:30pm-2:30pm and Tuesdays from 8:00AM- 10:00am, when there are not Field Trips Scheduled.

Sensory Resources Available

Visual timers, noise-reducing headphones, sunglasses, fidgets, and a quiet tent if a break is needed.
Special thanks to The Autism Society of Minnesota (AuSM) for their dedication, guidance and partnership.
