The Complete Sensory Starter Pack Guide

A gentle, practical guide to sensory processing needs and the tools that may support them
Everyone experiences sensory input differently. Some people seek certain sensations, while others feel overwhelmed by them. Many sensory tools support more than one sensory system, and needs can change from day to day.
