Mini Mundo in Gramado: accessibility and complete experience 🏰♿

Before the visit: contact and courtesy ✉️

We contacted Mini Mundo by email before the visit and were very well served. The team was helpful, answered questions and provided complimentary tickets so we could conduct an assessment focused on accessibility and inclusion. This openness to dialogue is already an important indicator of a management committed to continuous improvement. 💙

Arrival and parking 🚗

When we get there, there is paid parking of the park itself. There are also street parking spaces reserved for people with disabilities (where we park). For atypical families, this flexibility helps with logistics, ensuring boarding and disembarking with security and predictability. 🅿️♿

Entrance and first impressions 🏰

We were welcomed with great attention. Right at the entrance we noticed the presence of a tactile map of the park — a valuable initiative for people with visual impairments to understand the space more independently. We also received a thematic newspaper Mini Mundo, which makes the experience more fun and informative for children and adults. 📰✨

Accessibility along the route: ramps and paths ♿🛤️

The environment is mostly in the open air and combines excerpts with ramps and some segments with stairs. During our visit, it was possible to circulate on the ramps Walking around steps when necessary. For wheelchair users and people with reduced mobility, we recommend planning rest breaks, especially on hot or rainy days, and opting for grippy footwear.

To the miniatures are incredible — rich in detail, with several well-known characters and scenes that spark curiosity. It's one of those places where every corner has something new to discover and photograph. 📸🧩

Inclusive communication: signs, QR Codes and content 🔎📱

The park has information signs describing some scenes. On these plates there are QR Codes that direct to content in other languages and videos with a person explaining in Libras!. Excellent accessible communication initiative. We reinforce the importance of keeping the content associated with QR Codes subtitles, Libras and also adding audio description whenever possible, expanding the reach.

Food and bathrooms 🍔🚻

Exists food area inside the park. On this visit, we did not get to check if there is affordable menu (pictograms, enlarged letters, identification of allergens, etc.). The bathrooms were not evaluated either, but we believe that there is an adapted bathroom; it is worth confirming at the entrance or with the staff on the day. For those who use alternative communication (CAA), taking cards/pics can help a lot.

Our experience and activities ⛅🎁

It was a visit very cool and funWe comply with the challenge to find 4 characters and we won one magnetic puzzle of the park as a prize — a simple and motivating idea for children. At a certain point, rain it got tight and we had to leave; positive point: the park provides umbrellas to visitors. ☔

We also received information that there is guided tours that count the smallest details of the scenes — great for those who like to learn interesting facts and not miss anything. For atypical families, it can be interesting schedule quieter times and agree on breaks and specific needs in advance.
