Does your kiddo struggle with sensory processing and you need to shop for school?

Check your local Walmart and see if they offer sensory friendly shopping hours where lights are dimmed and displays are set to static images. The Walmart on West Adams in Temple participates.

During sensory-friendly hours, we will dim the lights, the music will be turned off, and anything with moving images on screens will be turned into a stationary picture.
