Did you know Miami Children’s Museum offers Sensory Saturdays?

On the second Saturday of the month, the museum creates a specially focused experience for children with disabilities and their families including modified lighting, sound adjustments and other features. The event is 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

Families can enjoy the day with a stage performance and other sensory-based activities. Best of all, admission is free – though RSVP is a must! Space is limited, so it’s important that families register as soon as possible. Registration closes at 5 p.m. the Friday before the event at 5 p.m. The address is 980 MacArthur Causeway, Miami, FL 33132.

For more information, call 305-373-5437, ext. 130, or email scoleman@miamichildrensmuseum.org.
