Sensory activities & products

Do you have any favorite activities? He also tries to squish himself in-between things. Is there anything I can order for him? I'm thinking of looking for a swinging hammock I can hang from the ceiling.

there are tons of products out there he would probably love, the cocoon looking hanging chair sounds like it might be good. Wish I could remember the real name for it

We have a pop up tent. I laid blankets on the bottom and put toys inside.

We also have a weighted blanket and vest.

Highly recommending pinterest on this one! I have a sensory kid who LOOOOVES being squished more than anything and has super adversions to touching weird stuff. Just type in sensory and you'll get 100's of ideas of things to make and do! For easter we made him a rice box to play in. He has a bean box that he climbs in and digs himself to the bottom. I've made gel bags and sensory balloons. He has sensory buckets with tons of different feeling stuff.

When you go to sites/stores that are labeled Therapy the cost of everything is trippled at the very least every time. =( Anything you can make on your own is insanely helpful!

Our daughter loves us to sit on her or squish against her on the couch, she also loves to have lots of blankets piled onto her. We also have a biter.necklace she can use when she feels anxious that we got online. These things help her calm down.
