In an exciting development for families with children on the autism spectrum, Chuck E. Cheese’s has partnered with the Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD) to launch “Sensory-Sensitive Sundays.” This initiative aims to create a welcoming environment for sensory-sensitive families and will take place at their location in Attleboro, Massachusetts, on the first Sunday of each month.
“We’re thrilled to offer this special opportunity for families to enjoy our delicious pizza and fun games in an atmosphere that promotes understanding and tolerance,” shared Lisa Morgan, the manager at Chuck E. Cheese’s Attleboro. The inaugural sensory-friendly event kicked off on November 6 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., with the next one set for December 4.
Additionally, Chuck E. Cheese’s in Glen Burnie, Maryland, also hosts sensory-friendly events. These gatherings take place on the second Sunday of each month, where noise levels are reduced and lighting is dimmed, providing a calm space for families. “I love bringing my kids to our sensory days,” explained David Thompson, the assistant manager in Glen Burnie. “It allows not just our children to play in a safe environment, but it also gives parents a chance to connect with others who understand their experiences. Our team members are dedicated to making these events as enjoyable as possible.”
Chuck E. Cheese’s is among a growing number of companies offering sensory-sensitive experiences for children with autism. Recently, Toys “R” Us announced plans for quiet shopping hours during the holiday season in both the U.S. and U.K., demonstrating a broader commitment to inclusivity.
