The second annual Sensory Winter Wonderland was hosted at Misericordia University. Children with autism and their families were invited to participate in many sensory oriented events, including a parachute activity and photo booth. All events are specifically designed for children who have sensory challenges. Student volunteers will strive to make this an opportunity that does not overwhelm any sensory sensitive participants.

"'Twas a couple days before the Sensory Winter Wonderland, when all through Misericordia University
Students were creating crafts, as it was planned.
The crafts were done neatly with care,
In the hopes people would come to the Wonderland and would enjoy it there.❄️"
