I appreciate this post, as you know, I homeschool because my oldest had trouble in public school. I love this list because we use almost everything on it!

This is an amazing list! When I was working with my special need kids at work we used a lot of these, especially the seat discs, fidget tools and the weighted items! I am definitely sharing this post with my readers this week!

These are great! We have some sensory issues here too. We love lava lamps for relaxation and Buckey balls for fidgets.

Chew toys: I buy teething beads in the baby section and string them on a pretty ribbon for my chewer. Cheap, washable, and looks like a little girl’s bead string. She likes them because the resistance to her teeth is just right. I’ve also had pretty good success with a short lanyard (like the kind you would attach keys to) that I tied to the top buttonhole of her dress.

Fidget Toys: Silly Putty- cheap, doesn’t dry out easily and very portable. I keep it in the car, in my purse and in the house.

Noise sensitivity: Earmuffs- the old fashioned really thick kind that go on a band that clings to the head. They do a great job of reducing sound…K
