FAQs

What does “sensory friendly” mean here?

It means we include practical planning notes about common sensory stressors: noise, lighting, crowding, and predictable routines. Each listing also includes kid-first tips where available.

Are these places verified?

Selected venues now include dated, linked research across six planning dimensions. Typical 1–5 planning estimates reflect venue settings, not measurements. Documented venue features and dated first-hand observations are labelled separately.

How do I find something near me?

Use the suburb hubs to narrow quickly, then open a listing for maps, photos, and quick “before you go” notes.

Can I suggest a place?

If your site has a contact page, send the venue name + suburb + any sensory tips (quiet times, lighting, crowd patterns). We can add it as a new listing.
