There is lots of research about how sensory integration can positively assist kids with helping to self-regulate. So, I impulsively got some chalk board paint, painted the walls, and made the room sensory rich. Daddy even got some LED lights to install for extra sensory fun. The boys can go in their sensory room, have time IN instead of time out, get sensory ;needs met, and learn how to regulate themselves. Kids that can self-regulate don't need EXTERNAL regulation like psychotropic medications, drugs, etc. Good stuff! The local Montessori school asked me to come speak to their teachers about how to appropriately apply sensory integration to help kids to self-regulate. Cool stuff! Plus...it's just good FUN!
