Can you tell me more about the sensory room?
The Sensory room has a relaxing atmosphere, which is good for child and adult emotional health. It gives them a chance to explore their feelings and to become interested in their environment.
This calming space is also a place for parents/carers to bond with their children, providing a restful and peaceful experience in today’s busy and sometimes stressful lifestyles.
There are many benefits for children and adults with special needs as it creates a stimulating but calming atmosphere. Among other things can help to improve hand-eye coordination and develop language skills. The overactive child can be calmed and the inactive become interested.
All young children can benefit from using a sensory room to develop fundamental sensory skills needed in later life. Sensory rooms are particularly useful for people with sight or hearing problems and have been proven to be extremely valuable to people with autism.
Benefits:
- Supports the development of communication
- Enhances sensory skills, hand-eye coordination and cause and effect response
- Assists the development of social and emotional skills
- Reduces tension and increase relaxation
- Provides fun and enjoyment
- Improves levels of concentration, alertness, calmness and general awareness
