Places
New York City places, with the quiet times.
Across the five boroughs, museums lend sensory bags and open early on set mornings, and both ballparks and Barclays Center have a sensory room. A zoo, a botanical garden and family theaters run sensory-friendly nights, mornings and shows this season. Every one opens a plan for your kid.
