Frugal Sensory Supplies

My students need deep pressure equipment (vests, lap pads, and resistance tunnels) to regulate their sensory needs.

My Students

I work with students in special education with a variety of needs that range from minor to severe disabilities.

Many of the students I work with have difficulty regulating their sensory systems which impacts there ability to attend and participate in the classroom.

I provide students and teachers equipment and training to help them regulate their sensory needs so they are able to engage and benefit from their time at school. The goal is to provide equipment that can be used during seated work so students can use the most of their time at school completing academics.

My Project

Students with sensory regulation deficits often benefit from deep pressure input throughout the day. When students are not able to regulate their sensory system, they struggle to stay seated which affects not only their education but can also be very distracting to other students in the classroom. Students who are seeking deep pressure also struggle to focus on the task they should be completing so although they may appear to be seated, they are not taking in the information they need to learn. It is my goal to implement the deep pressure they are seeking in a way that they can continue to sit at their desk and learn.
