Every child is different. Use this as a support plan, not a label. If something doesn't fit your kid, ditch it. Outdoor lighting is weather and time dependent (glare can spike).

Prepare before you goPractical supports
This is general information and not medical advice. If you're concerned about safety or health, check with your clinician.
Before you leave the house
- Preview the plan in one minute: where you're going, what you'll do first, and how you'll leave.
- Use a tiny visual plan (3 steps). Example: “arrive → do one thing → snack + go”.
- Agree on a “done” signal (card/hand sign/word) so leaving isn't a debate mid-overload.
Your calm-down kit
- Noise: headphones/ear defenders + a comfort sound or playlist.
- Light: hat/sunnies/tinted lenses + a “face away from lights” seat plan.
- Body: chewy/fidget + something heavy-worky (stretch band / push-the-wall game).
- Fuel: safe snack + water (hangry looks like overload).
Meltdown / shutdown plan (safety-first)
- Lower demands fast: fewer words, fewer questions, slower pace.
- Move to your “exit spot” (outside / car / quiet corner). Safety beats finishing the activity.
- Co-regulate: calm voice + simple choices (“outside or bathroom?”).
- After: recovery time counts. No post-mortem in the moment. Debrief later if needed.
Quick trigger check (for this space)
- Most likely load points here: light.
- Plan the first 10 minutes to be low-demand: arrive, orient, pick a safe base, then decide.

Let's make SuperPark Highpoint feel doable. Here's the plan.
Timing tip: Weekday mornings (calmest window)
Crowd levels can vary. A short wait is okay, a long wait usually isn't.
Sound can build. Have a volume-break option (outside / toilet / car).
Natural light is a wildcard. Sun, glare and wind can feel like too much quickly.
First 10 minutes: do a quick lap, pick a “home base”, and keep demands low (orientation beats achievement).
Accessibility: Google lists a wheelchair-accessible entrance here. It is still worth checking toilets and paths once you arrive.
