🍂 Fall Sensory Fun for Families! 🍁
Autumn is the perfect time to explore sensory-friendly activities that engage your child’s senses while supporting regulation and connection. Here are a few simple and enjoyable ideas for families with children on the autism spectrum:
✨ Nature Walk Sensory Hunt – Collect leaves, pinecones, and acorns. Talk about textures, colors, and sounds as you walk.
🎨 Pumpkin Painting – Skip the carving! Use brushes, sponges, or fingers to paint pumpkins—great for tactile input without the mess of carving.
🧺 Sensory Bin Play – Fill a bin with dry corn, rice, or leaves. Add small toys or scoops for a calming, hands-on experience.
☕ Warm & Cozy Cocoa Time – Engage smell and taste senses while practicing social turn-taking and conversation.
🕯️ Calm-Down Corner with Fall Scents – Create a cozy spot with blankets, soft lighting, and gentle scents like cinnamon or apple.
At Momentum, Inc., we know how meaningful it can be to connect through play and seasonal experiences. Let’s make this fall full of comfort, discovery, and joyful moments for every family. 💛
