Sensory Processing, How Our Kids Take in the World Around Them

We break down sensory processing and how our kids take in the world. Sensory Processing Disorder is a condition in which the brain has trouble receiving and responding to information that comes in through the senses. Some people with Sensory Processing Disorder are oversensitive to things in their environment. 80% of children diagnosed with autism also have Sensory Processing Disorder.

Our kids take in the world in their way, and often the world around them can feel overstimulating. We shift and monitor their intake of the sounds, textures, smells, and people around them to help them navigate the world outside our homes.

Navigating the outside world can be hard for our kids in a world filled with complex sounds and energy. We all have learned so much about watching the energy around our children shift to help support their sensory needs.
