sensory room, is a room that has been conditioned with carpeting, softened lighting, cushioned
walls.
Crash pads, walking padas, 10 pounds slamming balls, in this room children stimulate their
senses, Autism presents in different ways, that makes that the children require different
simulations, some need a relaxing environment and get calmed, others have the urge hit
themselves against the walls, so they use the cushions on the wall and on the floor to safely crush
themselves into, other need to exert intense physical activity, so, they use the ropes and
slamming balls, there are stations for every sensory need children have. After 30 minutes of this
kind of activity, kids stimulate their senses and let scape their frustrations and find a way to cope
with their anger and frustrations and fears. Once they channel all those negative feelings, they
are ready to continue their learning activities being able to focus and learn.
I do agree that children need to stimulate their sensory needs, with an activity that allows
them to focus and become better learners.
