Egg Hunt

Egg-stra Special Egg Hunt makes egg-hunting fun for children with special needs

It (the egg hunt) really is providing a community that is there … sometimes it seems kind of silent … it’s really cool for me just to look around and to see the special needs community rallying together and coming together and saying ‘You’re not alone … We’re here with you'”

Alabama Care broadcasts live from Chilton County for the second annual Egg-stra Special Egg Hunt, a sensory friendly, accessible Easter egg hunt hosted by Special in a Small Town.
