Sensory Bags
A Little Bag of Comfort. A Whole Lot of Love.
At Show Me Romey, we believe every child deserves to feel supported, understood, and celebrated. Our sensory bags are provided free of charge to families and filled with thoughtful tools to help children and youth feel calm, comfortable, and confident.
Some of the items we provide include sensory swings, noise-canceling headphones, fidget toys, sensory night lights, air-dry clay, chewy necklaces, sensory body socks, Loop earplugs for older youth, and weighted lap pads.
It is our hope that each sensory bag provides support, comfort, and is a blessing to your family.

THERAPY - RESOURCES - COMMUNITY - INCLUSION
Families in our rural communities face limited access to autism resources, therapy services, and supportive spaces. The Show Me Community Resource Center will provide a safe, inclusive, and family-centered environment right here at home in Urbana, Missouri.
Together we can build a place where every ability belongs.
GRACE'S GIFT
Scholarship
AWARD AMOUNT: $1,300
The Grace's Gift Scholarship was created in loving memory of Ava Grace Wolfe, niece of the Show Me Romey Foundation founder, Casey Cox. Ava was taken too soon at the age of 19 in an automobile accident in 2025.
At the time of her passing, Ava was working as a Title 1 teacher in an elementary school while attending Missouri State University. She had a deep love for all children and a special connection with those with special needs. Education, inclusion, and continuing her own learning were incredibly important to her.
This scholarship was established to honor Ava's name and legacy by supporting students who share her passion for education, compassion for others, and commitment to making the world a more inclusive place. Through the Show Me Romey Foundation, Grace's Gift continues Ava's love for children and her belief in the power of education.
Applications for the 2027 School Year Coming Soon!
