If you are looking for more ways to support sensory seekers in your school or special education classroom, I’m here to help! There are a lot of ideas for sensory seekers in the classroom. Always consult with your occupational therapist to get their expert advice as well. I love to include alternate seating in the classroom, sensory choice boards, calming ideas for kids, tactile sensory tools, sensory rooms in schools, sensory paths for schools, and much more!
