Pastor's Corner: A Journey Worth Beginning

On December 8th, families gathered at Dig Dig for Kids in Fishers, Indiana, for an unforgettable afternoon of inclusive play and connection. Hosted by Uniquely You Magazine in collaboration with Dig Dig for Kids, the event was specially designed for children with special needs, ensuring an engaging and supportive environment for everyone.

For two hours, attendees explored Indiana’s largest indoor sandbox – a unique space born out of a grandparent’s love and inspired by the shared joy of construction-themed play. The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as children of all abilities enjoyed a variety of activities, including digging, building, and letting their imaginations run wild in the massive sandbox.

Highlights of a visit to Dig Dig for Kids include:

• Safe, accessible play areas thoughtfully created to ensure inclusivity.

• Sensory-friendly activities tailored for children with all kinds of special needs.

• A chance for families to connect and share in their children’s joy in a supportive community.

Parents expressed their appreciation for the welcoming atmosphere and the opportunity for their kids to learn, play, and have fun together. With free admission and an open invitation to all, the event exemplified the spirit of inclusion and creativity.

Uniquely You Magazine and Dig Dig For Kids extend heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us in making this day a resounding success. It was a beautiful reminder of the power of play and community in bringing people together.
