Hello, Lovely Peeps! I saw this last night & thought it was brilliant - am posting in case it can help anyone! 😃
During the last year of Najma Omar’s doctoral program in occupational therapy, her prof asked them to think about tools that hadn’t yet been invented to help people — but should exist.
She thought about her sister, who struggled with finding a hijab that could help with her noise sensitivity without adding a lot of weight or increasing pressure around her ears, which headphones or earmuffs did, and developed the 'SereniHijab' (Serenity Hijab), made of lightweight fabric, and padding inserted into the hijab covers the ears just enough that loud sounds aren’t as overwhelming.
'For Najma, the SereniHijab isn’t just a business. It’s a mission.
“Islam teaches ease, compassion, accommodation and meeting people where they are at. Designing a hijab that considers sensory needs is an extension of that. It’s honoring faith while also honoring someone’s sensory needs and neurology,” she said.
“It’s making sure that all women like my sister don’t have to choose between their comfort and then their identity.” '
Expected to launch in May, the first drop ... 'will have 100 pieces, including 50 pull-on hijabs & 50 headcap and scarf sets. After that, the Sereni team will offer pre-order availability.'

#RocklandMaine hosts grand opening of all-#inclusive #playground
By Keenan Mills
Published: Aug. 28, 2024 at 3:40 PM EDTROCKLAND, Maine (WABI) - "The Rockland Rotary Club is building a stronger community. A playground for everyone is coming this week to the Rockland area.
"This all-inclusive playground was the site of a grand opening ceremony this morning. It’s at the the old MacDougal school.
"The project was headed by the Rockland Rotary Club. Some funding challenges led to it taking 2 years to make this possible.
"Featuring over 10 structures kids can play on, it also offers isolation pods and rubber ground for access to each section.
"'I think it’s going to be a tremendous draw to the mid-coast area, people will travel to be here and it will become a destination and so the idea of an all-inclusive is children that have physical challenges, emotional, intellectual, social challenges all can benefit from this playground,' stated Susan Page, who was in charge of the playground fundraising for the Rockland Rotary Club.
"'It will facilitate children of all challenges, kids in wheelchairs, kids who have sensory issues, there’s these little pods where they can isolate themselves and if they want, they can spin around and there’s easier access for like someone who’s helping a child with a wheelchair,' added Sergeant-at-Arms for the Rockland Rotary Club Emily Dillon.
"The playground will be open and ready to be played on by 5 p.m. Thursday afternoon."
