The sights, sounds, and social expectations of this experience can be overwhelming for kids (and adults!) with sensory sensitivities. By offering a sensory-friendly option, we lower the stimuli, creating an inclusive version of this magical holiday adventure. (Note: there will be no singing on the sensory friendly train car to accommodate sound sensitivities.) The sensory-friendly car has limited availability! Snag your tickets below.

Before you board
When children are in-the-know on plans and expectations, the alarm center of their brain is able to relax, allowing children to truly be in the moment during this magical event.
