These materials will assist me and my colleague in providing a more creative and unique counseling experience for our students. Handheld manipulative and sensory toys/items are proven to aid in relaxation and ease student stress while helping them to engage in counseling services. For example, I have students who have a difficult time sitting without fidgeting or moving. Having the ball chair on rollers would help a student stay focused on counseling topics. As I sit here and type this project description, a student came to my door and said "Hey Miss, do you have any more of those squishy toys I can borrow, I am having a stressful day and I need to take a test". Many times students need help regulating their feelings and calming their bodies before they are able to do academic work. We know that when our bodies are stuck on the go, full speed ahead, or even just stuck, we will not be able to learn appropriately.
