Playdate for Autism at Dinosaur Playground

Help make a difference in the lives of all those affected by autism. Saturday, March 28th from 10am-2pm, Dinosaur Playground presents their 2nd annual Playdate for Autism at both Dinosaur Playground locations. Dinosaur Playground’s 2nd location is in the same plaza and features arts and crafts and more. Get an early start on Autism Awareness. A portion of the proceeds will go to Autism Speaks and Revolution Autism. Autism Speaks helps fund autism research, awareness, advocacy, and family services. Revolution Autism is a local organization that brings a variety of direct support to families in SWFL with a child with autism, including respite care and support groups.

Ray and Jessica Stewart, owners of Dinosaur Playground, have a very personal connection to this cause. Two years ago their son, who is now 4, was diagnosed with autism. Since his diagnosis they have become aware of how much their business helps children of all abilities and they hope to use the playground to help children and families affected by autism. The playground is a very safe environment for children with autism, since the owners know all too well how to child-proof an area for a child with autism.

“A Playdate for Autism” will be Saturday, March 28th from 10am-2pm. Free lunch will be provided by Outback Steakhouse and there will be a magic show by Robbie the Ringmaster. Bring the whole family for a day filled with fun!
