Schuyler Public Library Director Jenny White helps kids make soap goop at June 29's Corazones Azules activity. The soap goop, made from Ivory soap, goes from a bar of soap to foam to flakes to goop in a fun sensory experiment, White said.
For children with disabilities of any kind, it can be difficult to find places to have fun and be themselves safely and comfortably. Almost a year ago, a group of parents of children with special needs banded together to create a sort of support and community learning group called Corazones Azules to address that very issue.
