HOLYOKE, Mass. (WWLP) - Easter is a week away, but Holyoke celebrated early. The Easter Bunny has made his return this year, making an early appearance at the Wistariahurst Museum, with children following the paw prints to find eggs. Springfield NAACP Caregiver Symposium honors those who give back "The city of Holyoke does an amazing job putting on a big one downtown, but not every kid thrives in that environment," said Megan Seiler, Director at the Wistariahurst Museum. "So we wanted to be able to offer a more quiet, more calm space for kids who might have sensory sensitivities." An inclusive event for everyone, one parent said it is nice because her daughter can be herself since it is quiet with no overstimulation. The kids all found one egg in every room, but there was nothing inside to ensure that they could each pick a prize they wanted. Children of all ages were on the hunt for eggs from open to close, including Giovanna Tredo and her daughter Claire. "She wanted to come, she loves Easter," said Tredo of East Longmeadow.Tredo is also a special education teacher of 32 years in the city of Springfield. "I feel that her coming here in the community and just coming out, seeing other kids, and it's all kid-friendly and this is sensory friendly for the kids with special needs, and I'm glad they include kids with disabilities," Tredo said. The Wistariahurst Museum also hosts other sensory-friendly events. "We do stuff like this throughout the year," Seiler said. "So we have sensory-friendly Sunday fun days with games and activities, and we have different themes around them." For more information, visit wistariahurst.org.
