- It was absolutely beautiful! Both of my kids really enjoyed it. My son is autistic and was completely fascinated by all the lights. It can be hard to find activities that he really enjoys because he’s very particular about what interests him, so seeing him so captivated and excited throughout the experience meant so much to us. We will definitely be back!
