Sensory-Friendly Egg Hunt & Celebration

Each year, COAM proudly hosts a Sensory-Friendly Egg Hunt & Celebration designed to create a joyful and inclusive holiday experience for individuals and families in our community.

What began as a small egg hunt has grown into a full holiday celebration thoughtfully designed with sensory needs in mind. Families can enjoy a sensory-friendly egg hunt, Easter Bunny photo opportunities, refreshments, hands-on crafts, and a variety of sensory activities in a welcoming, supportive environment.

This annual celebration continues to grow each year, reflecting both the need for inclusive holiday events and the strength of our Central Oregon community. Our goal is to ensure every child/ young adult and family can participate, feel supported, and celebrate together.

COAM’s Sensory-Friendly Egg Hunt & Celebration is made possible through the generosity and support of our community. As this event continues to grow each year, we invite local businesses, organizations, and service providers to be part of creating a joyful, inclusive holiday experience for families across Central Oregon.

Community partners can support this event in a variety of ways, including hosting activities, donating supplies or refreshments, providing sensory-friendly engagement stations, or volunteering time and resources. Every contribution—big or small—helps ensure this celebration remains accessible, welcoming, and meaningful for all families.

You can also support this event and other COAM programs by shopping from our event wishlist. Wishlist items directly support sensory activities, crafts, refreshments, and materials used throughout the year, making a lasting impact beyond this single celebration.

By partnering with COAM or supporting our Wishlist, you are helping create inclusive experiences where families feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
