USA

Missionary Warning—Missionary materials have been received in the mail from a handwritten address 21 Fessler Drive, Monsey, NY. Please watch for this mailing to prevent your children from opening it!

Special Needs Jump Event-- Sky Zone Deer Park Indoor Trampoline Park (111 Rodeo Drive, Deer Park, NY 11717 ) will be opening on the first Monday of each month exclusively for jumpers with special needs. Sky Zone Deer Park team members have been trained and certified by Missing Piece Awareness to be autism aware and accepting and special modifications have been implemented by the management team. On this day for children and adults with special needs, Sky Zone dials down the music, increases the staff ratio, and limits capacity. The Sky Zone team understands the need to provide families affected by autism with a recurring session time where individuals can learn the rules and practice them in a safe and comfortable environment so they can eventually generalize these skills and be fully integrated at any time. First Mondays of the month, June 2-December 1, 2014.

Sensory Bounce---Pump It Up Norwalk ( 145 Main St., Norwalk, CT 06851) has sensory bounce time with no loud music or flashing lights -- just lots of fun bouncing, jumping and sliding. Tuesdays through December 31.
