Mini therapy ponies visit Kohl Children's Museum event

Mane In Heaven therapy ponies made a visit to the Everyone at Play event earlier this month at Kohl Children's Museum in Glenview.

The museum works with several community organizations to invite local kids with special needs and their families to check out exhibits while it is otherwise closed to the public.

Anyone who would like to receive information about future Everyone at Play events - currently scheduled for Oct. 17 and Nov. 14 - email program coordinator Cori Paulsrud: cpaulsrud@kcmgc.org. For information, visit kohlchildrensmuseum.org or call (847) 832-6600. Mane in Heaven is a Barrington-based nonprofit that aims to connect people and miniature therapy horses to promote empathy, kindness and overall well-being, according to its website.
