The Sensory Cove is a calm space designed to provide a retreat from the museum’s exciting atmosphere. With soft lighting, calming colors, and a variety of sensory-friendly activities, visitors can relax and recharge. Cozy nooks and interactive elements like a Bubble Wall and Marble Panel create a peaceful environment, especially for children with sensory processing needs.
