“Future World” Journey Reflections

Gratitude • Joy • Freedom

Determination empowers you to navigate,
observe, and truly engage with this world.

In contrast to kids from typical households, the children involved in our project have limited opportunities to interact with the outside environment. That's why we seize every opportunity to take them out for various activities. Despite the challenges that may arise, we remain committed to ensuring that these children can explore, witness, and fully experience the world around them.

On this occasion, we took the children to “Future World” for a day of fun. The children were all in wheelchairs. The amusement park spans three floors and lacks an elevator, which posed a significant challenge for us. We are incredibly grateful to the amusement park staff, who went above and beyond to assist us by carrying both the children and their wheelchairs throughout the day. Their support was invaluable in making this outing enjoyable. 

In addition to complimentary adult tickets, they generously provided meals for the children and arranged for us to dine in a quiet, comfortable restaurant, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time. To top it off, they even created a welcome banner specifically for our children.

You may stumble along the way,
but I will always be here to support you.

For your sake, we are continuously adapting.

 

Due to his scoliosis and increased muscle tension, Tyler has fewer opportunities for recreational activities. However, at the Future World Children's Park, he found joy in a large sponge pool. Surrounded by the soft sponge, his body was fully supported, allowing him to relax completely and enjoy the experience.

Upon our return, we have plans to revamp the ocean ball pool in our project by replacing the ocean balls with sponge blocks. This modification will enable children with high muscle tension to move freely within the sponge pool, promoting greater relaxation and comfort.

When you smile, the entire world lights up.

Allow yourself to be free, agile, and unrestrained.

 

Tim is a lively little one, and according to his nannies, the Future World Amusement Park feels like home to Tim. There, he can truly express himself, moving freely and confidently without the fear of obstacles. He joyfully runs and crawls on the trampoline, fully embracing the experience.

As Austyn sits on the merry-go-round, basking in the warmth of the sunshine, he feels completely at ease.

Sometimes Austyn has a short temper, but on the merry-go-round he finds himself lost in thought. It enchants him, spinning him around and bringing him a sense of joy. In this moment, he relishes the bright, warm sunshine.

The refreshing scent of cassia seeds wafts through the air.

In the sand pool, generously layered with thick cassia seeds, the atmosphere is darker, illuminated by dim but vibrant, colorful lights. The subtle aroma of the cassia seeds creates a calming ambiance, inviting relaxation. As we watch Caleb, we can't help but smile at his contented expression.

The children don’t want to say goodbye to "Future World," and we understand their reluctance. We know that a vibrant future awaits them, and we hope that one day they will possess the courage and strength to embrace it fully. Our wish for them is to always hold onto the freedom and joy that resides in their hearts.

May their presence make the world a better place!
