6 Exciting Wheelchair Accessible Theme Parks - 1 views

  •  
    Looking over my bookmarks to Diigo, I must enjoy recreation and leisure a lot, but I couldn't resist posting this blog about amusement parks and accessibility. The author identifies 6 amusement parks in the U.S. and briefly describes the unique perks of each. From Morgan's Wonderland in TX, built specifically for special needs children, to Cedar Fair Parks in NC and OH, which cater especially to children with autism, this is an interesting list of possibilities. Although this is just a blog, it provides quite a bit of information and photos.

    How cool are these bean bags?? They would be great to use in a classroom during story time, or at home while the child is watching a movie. The bean bags look very comfortable, and they provide the deep pressure children with ASD and SPD crave.

    This is a documentary that follows 3 teenage girls with autism as they get ready for prom, and learn how to transition into adulthood. Education and early intervention is important with ASD, but as OTAs we also need to remember that these individuals will be dealing with their autistic symptoms for most of their life. This documentary gives us a glimpse into their lives, relationships, families, and therapy sessions as they learn the social rules and cues of the adult world. I wish I had HBO so I could watch this. I encourage all of you to watch it if you can. It looks like a beautiful documentary that shows the basic desire we all have to be loved and accepted.
