Nobody loves to be told to calm down!
Is your child easily frustrated? Us too! Sensory input can have calming affects on the mind and body through giving the brain something relaxing to focus on.
Squish a ball of Play Dough into oblivion, scoop handfuls of colourful rice and let them fall gently through your fingers, let slime take on a mind of its own with the help of gravity, or sort through and make a design using noodles.
Allow the brain to take a side trip to sensory town and come back feeling calmer and more reasonable!
What's your favourite way to calm down?!
