Whether it be in a book, a film, or in our imagination, many have imagined going on an adventure to another world. As a child I remember playing in the back yard and picking up sticks as a magic wand, growing the flowers in the garden, or speaking to the many critters in the trees. While never leaving the comfort of what I knew, I traveled to Hogwarts, to Narnia, and beyond.
In Epic Magic Quest!, we will explore the idea of learning who we are as we craft our own fantastical journeys through the magical world of Whimsia! We’ll learn to talk to animals in the magic forest, invent spells at the wizard wagon, read runes at the ancient ruins, and sing baby dragon eggs to sleep!
As human beings, we learn who we are as we grow up. We learn how to be kind, how to be curious, how to be imaginative, and how to be thoughtful. However, this idea often get’s pushed aside in the neurodivergent and disabled community as society tries to push its own ideas of how to be a person. The reality is there are so many ways to be a human, and the only way we can discover that is to do it in our own time. In Whimsia, you can discover who you are in any way you like because there anything is possible.
So, come on and join us on our magical journey through Whimsia. The quest is waiting for you!
