What a sensory integration session looks like.

Children don’t have to sit to learn. In fact moving and learning is great. Watch how this little man uses movement to learn. He has sensory tools on the table if he needs them and we have just had a movement input. He is given help when asked, giving time to process and we sing to help with the answers.

Working on timing and sequencing as well as incorporating some tactile experience. Sensory integration is fun but there is a theory behind it all.

Guess where he is?

Some fine motor skills after movement and regulation. A child needs too be in the just right state to support attention, concentration and intrinsic skills. After the balance sensory obstacle course this little man was able to attend to this task well.

Always fills my heart with joy when I walk into special schools after the summer breaks and sensory circuits and visual supports all all in place to prepare and support the students.

A great example of how a communication aid supports a childs to show their knowable and understanding. Never underestimate that because a child has no verbal language they don’t know the answers. They just need the right tools that works for them.

Another presentation on sensory processing delivered in a local school today. Final one of the academic year. Great so many schools are seeking the training to support their students.

I just received a beautiful email such overwhelming positive feedback on my presentation I delivered at one of my schools today. Presenting really does take me out of my comfort zone but when I get feedback like this, it makes it all worth it. I’ve worked with some of the staff for many years and still sensory awareness training hits hard. Having a regulated child is so crucial for learning and also seeing the signs of sensory behaviours can really support a child needs and make the difference to their day.
