Sensory Santa at We Rock the Spectrum Somerville
November 19,2024
Sunday, December 1st, 2024 | 1.5-hour Sessions Available | $30 per Child
We are thrilled to announce our first-ever Sensitive Santa event at We Rock the Spectrum Somerville, designed to provide children with complex needs a safe, welcoming, and fun filled experience this Christmas.
What is Sensitive Santa?
For many families with children who have special needs, holiday traditions can feel overwhelming and isolating. Santa visits can be especially difficult due to long lines, crowded spaces, and overstimulating environments. Sensitive Santa offers an opportunity for these children to engage with Santa in a calm, inclusive, and judgment-free space.
Why Sensitive Santa Matters
Our Sensitive Santa event is more than just a photo opportunity; it’s a chance for children to experience the magic of the season in an environment designed for them.
- Inclusive Experience: Every child, regardless of their abilities, deserves to experience the joy of meeting Santa.
- Stress-Free & Judgment-Free: Parents can relax knowing their child is accepted and supported in an understanding environment.
- Accessible Traditions: For families of children with special needs, this is a rare chance to engage in a typical Christmas tradition without added stress or worry.
What Makes Sensitive Santa Different?
- Sensory-Friendly Environment: Our gym is designed to reduce sensory overload with a focus on play. Kids can explore the Sensory Gym while waiting to meet Santa, reducing the pressure of a visit with Santa
- No Crowds or Long Waits: We understand that long lines can be stressful. Our sessions are by appointment only, with small groups at a time to ensure minimal wait time and a peaceful experience.
- Personalised Interactions: Santa is trained to interact with children who may communicate differently or need more time to adjust. There’s no rush, no pressure—just patience and understanding.
- Gifts for Every Child: Each child will receive a special gift from Santa.
