Calming Toys
Since we are on the week of calming with our calming cards giveaway I thought I would give you some more calming toys…
Therapy Shoppe also has Dance for the Sun, Yoga for Kids because sometimes kids just need to relax and calm. And kids LOVE to move their muscles. I remember doing Barbie aerobics with my mom. This one combines jazz, bluegrass, and African Tribal Songs to entertain and calm your little ones.
If your sensory stimmer needs heavy work try a bop bag that he/she can punch and crash into all day long. They are great for sensory CRASHERS! We had one that accidentally popped a hole last year when we moved.

My sister works with children and I believe that some of them have Autism. I think that she would be interested in learning about you calming toys.
