The initiative actually began with sensory-friendly shopping during the back-to-school season, and due to overwhelmingly positive feedback, the company is now implementing permanent dedicated shopping hours.

Walmart says, "During these hours, we hope our customers and associates will find the stores to be a little easier on the eyes and ears." TVs will show a static image, music will be turned off, and lights will be dimmed during this time.

All customers can now enjoy sensory-friendly shopping hours from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. every day at all Walmart stores.
