The 2026 International MPS Symposium is pleased to offer a dedicated Children’s Program for young attendees ages 3 to 15 years. While parents and caregivers participate in the Family and Scientific Program, children will have the opportunity to enjoy a variety of fun-filled activities in a safe, supportive, and engaging environment.

The Children’s Program is designed to provide an enriching experience, with activities tailored to different age groups and abilities. From creative arts and crafts to games, music, and interactive play, children will have the chance to learn, explore, and connect with peers from around the world.

To ensure the safety and comfort of all participants, trained volunteers will provide supervision. Depending on the individual needs of each child, this may be one-on-one care or group support. Our goal is to create an inclusive and welcoming space where every child can thrive.

Please note that a Child Questionnaire must be completed for each child during the registration process. This information will help our team understand your child’s specific needs, preferences, and any accommodations required to make their experience enjoyable.

We look forward to welcoming your children to Florence in 2026 and to providing them with memorable experiences while you engage fully in the Symposium.
