Sensory Trail Projects for Dream Catcher

Saba Ghole

Students at Odyssey STEM Academy, our NuVuX Partner School, took four field trips to Dream Catcher Equine Therapy Center to install their sensory trail projects. The install was the culmination of an incredible studio in which students built full scale tools, games, and activities for therapy patients on horseback. From the Tentacle Toss to the Color Cave to the Feeling Forest, the trail is a multifaceted sensory experience that engages users across different ages and abilities through smell, sight, touch, taste, and sound. The Dream Catcher Equine Assisted Therapy studio was part of the Spring Term's Idea Lab lead by our NuVuX Fellow at Odyssey.
