Oksana's Outdoor Playset

Oksana Is Loving Her New Outdoor Playset

Oksana, with level 3 severe autism, is having an amazing time on her new outdoor playset. She’s enjoying the zip line and swings so much. The tiny house is a perfect spot to play hide and seek with her brother.

Thank you from Oksana’s Family

“Oksana is so happy to have her new outdoor play area!!! She’s so excited! She was crying to go play outside early this morning! I’m just glad it’s giving her a love for the outdoors more!!!

I feel like she’s talking more and even says ‘I’m flying’ when on her zip line! Oksana is super excited about her playhouse and sandbox as well. The sandbox we picked out has a shade and cover, so it is protected from the rain and harsh weather. Her new tiny house is perfect for her size and she likes to play hide n seek in it. The swings are her favorite thing to do so far. She loves how we can change out the swings for different feelings and experiences! It was a lot of hard work and digging, but well worth the wait. My older son also has autism and doesn’t leave his room much, but even he came out to see the new play area and to watch her have some fun. Thank you so much for this kind gift! I’ve never seen her so happy!” – Oksana’s mom, Suzanne.
