Inclusive Museum Stations.
| Station Name | Description | Inclusive Considerations |
|---|---|---|
| Green Screen Exploration | The green backdrop in this station disappears when visitors choose a background. | Changeable backgrounds featured settings that portrayed diverse experiences. |
| Scented Sensory Station | Homemade spice-scented playdoh with a variety of cutting tools were available at the sensory station. | Scented materials provided an additional way for visitors with vision or tactile needs to engage. |
| Walk In Kaleidoscope | The larger than life kaleidoscope uses people as the kaleidoscope’s beads to create millions of you. | The exhibit swings open to allow it to be fully wheelchair accessible. |
| Water Xylophone | Vases of different heights with colored water allowed visitors to play a full octave of music. | The water and song cards were color coded to allow visitors of all abilities to play music. |
| Puppet Theater | The puppet theater was filled with animal themed puppets. | Puppets in a multitude of sizes allowed visitors with a range of motor abilities to use them. Some puppets allowed for advanced manipulations, while others were simple finger puppets. |
| Butterfly Chromatography | Visitors used coffee filters and markers to separate the markers’ colors. With pipe cleaners and clothespins, the experiment became colorful butterflies. | Easy grasp clothespins, large droppers, and unscented markers were used to increase accessibility for visitors with fine motor disabilities and/or scent aversions. |
