EMPOWER PLAY™ AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM
A Sensory-Informed Learning & Exploration Initiative
Empower Play™ is a community-centered after school program created by Delaware Sensory Museum to support neurodivergent children and families through inclusive experiences rooted in STEM exploration, sensory engagement, movement, creativity, communication development, wellness, and social connection.
Designed to simulate key elements of a future permanent sensory-informed facility, Empower Play combines immersive learning experiences with caregiver support, environmental awareness, and intentional community collaboration.
Our goal is simple: create spaces where children can explore freely, families feel supported, and inclusion is intentionally designed into every experience.
