Merlin’s KIDS is building a western-themed town complete with stores, restaurants, shops, a library, a general store, and livery, and a functioning wild west town all built on a beautiful ranch in Hunterdon County, NJ.

Dr. Temple Grandin will be graciously assisting us in the design and planning of the interior and therapy rooms of the ranch and we will have state-of-the-art quarters specifically designed for maximum learning and fulfillment. Several types of therapies including OT, PT, ST, hippotherapy (horses and riding), pet therapy, and others will be available and will also be provided FREE OF CHARGE to families in need. The spacious log cabins in which families will reside will be complete with interactive walls and kid-friendly furnishings to keep our special children free from harm and contained safely.

Special needs children and their families can vacation with their special needs and typical child(ren) without the stigma and judgement of public and private facilites. All who enter are welcomed into a caring and nurturing environment.

Children and adults alike will be welcomed to the ranch without judgement and with unconditional acceptance. Families can connect to others in an environment of acceptance and diversity. All who enter our ranch are special and loved.

THE SPIRIT OF ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING ENCOMPASSES ALL WHO ENTER MERLIN’S KIDS RANCH.

Come visit Merlin’s KIDS Ranch and enjoy our myriad fountains and ponds, babbling brooks, and zen meditation areas with the tranquility and peace of nature abounding. Enjoy our wildlife sanctuary and nature trails, picnic area, and even a miniature golf course! Weekly special events will highlight the calendar, including syposia by Dr. Temple Grandin and other noted personalities!
