Set the visit up for a win
- 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.
Support gear (no shame, all strategy)
- 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).
If overwhelm hits
- 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.

Good, clean and new park. Nice layout, children had lots of fun on the basketball court. Good shelter and plenty of seating around bbq. There is only 1 toilet, would of been 5 stars if there was more than 1…
Fun playground, very safe, stairs are narrow though and more suitable for smaller feet. Sandpit was quite clean and swings were lots of fun.
Good fun park for the kids
