Episode 18: Summer Sensory Activities
Today, I want to share insights into creating sensory-friendly activities for children during the holidays. As a parent of a child with sensory processing differences, I understand how important it is to consider their unique needs. We'll explore the importance of identifying triggers and understanding your child’s sensitivities—whether it’s sound, lights, or crowds.
We’ll discuss the diverse journey each child takes with sensory processing and how sharing practical tips can help make the experience less daunting. You’ll learn about the value of involving your child in the planning process and having open conversations about their needs. How can you celebrate your child’s efforts in managing sensory challenges and help them build resilience?
We’ll also explore the idea that not all children have sensory sensitivities—some actively seek out sensory input. Discover how to embrace the holidays as an opportunity for sensory-rich experiences, from swimming and crafting to engaging in music-related activities that support auditory processing.
Are you ready to adapt the activities that matter to you as a parent, in ways that accommodate your child’s sensory needs? Let’s dive into the episode.
