Discovery Cube

Sensory Friendly Mornings

 

 

Discovery Cube is dedicated to providing EVERY child a safe and enjoyable experience when they come to learn and discover with us. We are passionate about creating a space that celebrates neurodiversity and are committed to offering more inclusive guest experiences starting with our Sensory Friendly Mornings. Our sensory-friendly maps, visual cue cards, and welcoming staff allow guests independent exploration that targets specific interests and needs. We look to continue to evolve and learn from our visitors and aspire to be a place where everyone can learn and grow in a thriving and comfortable setting.

With the launch of Sensory Friendly Mornings, our team has also created a number of supporting materials for guests, including sensory-friendly maps, visual cue cards, and backpacks. These materials allow independent exploration and target specific interests and needs for guests.

Additionally the Cube has also partnered with Thompson Autism and Neurodevelopmental Center at CHOC for guidance, support and training for all our frontline team members in OC and LA to help foster a welcoming and informed culture among our staff.

Sensory Friendly Mornings will occur every third Sunday of each month from 8:00 am – 10:00 am, with the first Sensory Friendly Morning.
