We Rock The Spectrum gym in Grayson creates an inclusive place where every child can play, belong and thrive

There’s a reason Yusra Syed Lee and her husband Noel opened We Rock The Spectrum kid’s gym in Grayson. The California-based We Rock The Spectrum is an indoor inclusive sensory play gym, created for neurodiverse children. There are some 200 franchises in the United States, Canada and abroad. The couple – parents to three daughters, one on the autism spectrum – opened the facility on Grayson Industrial Parkway in early September. “We started this journey thinking about our own kids and how the world is not so kind towards kids with needs and families who cater to kids with needs,” said Yusra. “There aren’t a lot of spaces that welcome those families. And we were wondering if there was a spot for kids and families like ours. “One-stop shops like this didn’t exist because if they did, we’d be taking our kids there instead of building one.” Yusra, who works as a speech therapist at Emory Decatur Hospital, said that the 17,200-square-foot We Rock The Spectrum in Grayson represents the company’s largest footprint. She added that in a slice of the building – 6,200-square feet – there’s room for birthday parties, camp activities, an in-house sensory-friendly salon and barber shop

Restaurant Roundup: Saint Nobody's and Mastro's join a wave of new openings in Atlanta

Part of Atlanta’s charm lies in its diverse food scene, from the rich culture to the bold flavors. The saying often goes that “Atlanta isn’t a real place,” and what makes it unique is the bustling dining and drinking spots on every corner of the city's neighborhoods, built to satisfy every palate. Lucky for locals and tourists alike, there's never a shortage of places to visit, especially when new businesses are rolling in every month. However, the landscape of the restaurant industry is constantly in flux, and with grand openings, the city is also seeing a wave of closures from small businesses to legacy and popular restaurants.
