I work in a Special Education classroom where many of the children have Autism and these sensory items will help to calm and regulate them. The schools do not provide many of these extra items to support their learning. I am asking for wiggle seats and bean bag seating to help students get their wiggles out while learning. The sensory bags and beads can be used both for rewards and also to use to keep their focus on learning instead of fidgeting. Also I need a few storage bins to help keep all the new sensory items organized!
