My Project

Some of the children I serve have autism. Many need to get away and calm down on their own when things overwhelm them. Rockers provide calmness and sensory relief to children soothe them when they have sensory overload.

Rocking is an excellent way to receive vestibule stimulation while strengthening muscles.

Using the kids sensory rocker will help to develop a sense of balance. The soothing rocking movement awakens their imagination, promotes balance, and strengthens muscles.

The rocking chair provides sensory aid that is beneficial to children of all ages who need to decompress and relax.
