Nice idea to make it easier to take autistic children to public events

This is an interesting story. I have a couple of friends with kids who need to wear quieting earphones in most public situations, and this seems like a nice way to help families be able to broaden the events that they can attend together. It will be interesting to see if it catches on as a trend at the larger venues.

I remember hearing a story on NPR earlier this week about a few airports that have constructed sensory rooms for air travelers with autism:
