Creating a Sensory Room

Building a sensory room is a fun and exciting adventure. The goal of the sensory space is to provide exploratory and impactful activities that are stimulating, relaxing or both. Stimuli is taken in through the ve senses: gustatory/taste, olfactory/smell, tactile/touch, auditory/hearing, and visual/sight. Sensory information is also processed by two other senses: proprioception (joint sense of motion) and vestibular (balance/spinning). The central nervous system responds by speeding up, slowing down or normally/calmly to the new input.
