In addition to the regular program - Disney, Autism Awareness Australia and The Autism Association of Western Australia have worked together to present an autism-friendly performance of The Lion King in Melbourne and Perth!
From their website, "These specially adapted performances will be suitable for individuals on the autism spectrum and their families, with trained staff on hand and dedicated quiet areas should anyone need to leave their seats. Slight adjustments to the production will include reduction of any jarring sounds or lights focused into the audience."
The Lion King official merchandise
Together with Zazzle, The Lion King have made available a range of wonderful products and gift ideas for both children and adults. Given that these are available on Zazzle, that means you can customise any product with your own name or your child's name if you want too.
Here is just a small selection of what you can find in the Zazzle store under the brand name The Lion King (there are over 4,000 products to choose from!):

Cecil the Lion
Just recently, one of the animators for The Lion King's animated movie, Aaron Blaise, had created a tribute artwork for Cecil the lion. Because this went viral (much to his surprise), he made the artwork available for prints to purchase - with 100% of the profits going to WildCRU.
Aaron also made a time lapse video of how he created this special artwork too:
You can see the full details on Aaron's website. And you can visit WildCRU here for more about their cause.
