Parent Victory with the Sensory Bag

child victory over sensory struggles

Hi John,

I just wanted to reach out and let you know that I really appreciate the sensory bag activity that you suggested for Alan. We have been using it daily, and it has really helped Alan, and his brother, understand what different pressures and speeds are. When Alan is in the bath he usually doesn't scrub very hard. Now I tell him to scrub with medium pressure and he knows what that means, thanks to the sensory bag. Another time that it comes in handy is when we are on a walk and Alan is moving really slowly. I can now tell him to go medium or fast speed, and he completely understands what that means and starts walking more quickly to keep pace with me. 

The sensory bag has been a wonderful way to help my kiddos understand these concepts, which has been so helpful. Thank you so much for the information and the resources!
