Guessing what's in the “touch bags” without peeking!
Kids Read, Too! Featured Event - Everyone Can!
Families experienced our world using several senses.  Activity centers included: Braille writing, adaptive games, music videos by “Flame”, service dogs, the “touch bags” and a sensory art project. Thank you to the gracious presenters who joined us on such a beautiful day! Patricia Carley explained how she facilitates an art class for those who are differently abled. Fritz Smith and Lauren Bachner brought a service and a therapy dog and demonstrated the differences in how they help people.
