Sensory box

Sensory box

Has anybody heard of them?
Its a box you keep and has lots of different things for different situations or feelings it can be helpful sometimes when thing become a bit full on

You can put a bunch of stuff in for all different things ill just rattle off some examples and maybe some others will have suggestions also.

For relaxing you can have candles to burn or oils to use. A nice soft toy to feel touch and cuddle. You could place a pictue of something that makes you feel calm.or even put some tea bags in.

Some people often keep coloured pen and paper inside to write things down on.

For people who 'zone out' you can had super sour things to eat or suck on to help kind of 'jolt' you back to the hear and now.

Some people use playdoh or bouncing putty to play with or mold in their hands.

Im struggling to think of more right now and i hope i have semi explained it. You can get creative with your box and it dosnt have to be big at all. Just thought this may be useful for some


Sorry if im out of line with this!
