Florida Bomb Squad Provides ‘Beeping’ Eggs For Visually Impaired Children To Have Easter Egg Hunt
A Florida Bomb Squad brought Easter cheer to visually impaired kids by creating beeping eggs allowing them to have an Easter egg hunt.
The St. Lucie Sheriff's Office Bomb Disposal Squad heard about the idea from another county a few years ago, and since then have put special beepers on the eggs so that the children can still hunt for eggs even if they can't see them.
Sheriff Ken Mascara described what it meant to do this for the visually impaired community in a video posted to the Sheriff's Office official Facebook page.
The Sheriff said it was "clear" that the children were enjoying their time and they look forward to the event every year.
The smiles on these kid's faces tell it all.
This event is amazing, and if our local Bomb Squad can ever pull this off, we'll definitely get behind it!
