If your child is over-responsive to sensory input, it might look like:
👉 Being unable to tolerate certain types of clothing. ✴️ Find soft clothing without seams or tags while also incorporating a sensory diet routine into the day to help better process the tactile input.
👉 Extreme picky eating - this can look like a child who has less than 10 foods they will eat. ✴️ Find a feeding specialist who can help your child learn how to process different types of food textures.
👉 Fearful of feet leaving the ground, aka gravitational insecurity. ✴️ Start small and slow! But don't avoid, because then your child will never learn to trust their body! Include more vestibular activities into the day!
👉 Avoids playground equipment, likely because they struggle to understand their body in relation to the different climbing pieces. ✴️ Visit the park daily and help them climb and crawl, do it with them!
👉 Fearful of loud noises, like the blender or vacuum. This is a sign of auditory hypersensitivity. ✴️ Look into a therapeutic listening program, like @advancedbraintechnologies
.
If your child's sensory avoiding is causing extreme challenges throughout the day, in-person occupational therapy is a great route to try!
