Old Bridge, NJ – August 25, 2016 – The Old Bridge Public Library is pleased to offer a new program series designed for adults with special needs and their caregivers. “Sensory Time for Adults” will combine various activities, such as stories, games, music and crafts, and will give participants the opportunity to refine their communication and social skills.
The monthly program will begin Wed. Sep. 14th at 10:30am, with a theme of “Fabulous Fiesta,” celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month. The October 12th session will have an autumnal and Halloween theme.
