About The Sensory Gym
What makes The Sensory Gym different from other facilities in the area?
The Sensory Gym promotes growth and development through means of play and sensory exploration. Every child needs "x" amount of sensory input throughout a day to learn to adapt to different environments. Some kids, need a ton of input, and some need very little. The space provides various means of sensory stimulation throughout for whatever amount of input a kid might need.
Play is a crucial part of a child's development. The more opportunities a child has to play, the more opportunities they have to grow. The 8 areas of Occupation in life include Activities of Daily Living (taking care of yourself), Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (taking care of others), Work, Education, Leisure, Social Participation, Rest/Sleep, and PLAY. For children, their main focus is play and social participation. The Sensory Gym provides these areas of occupation to promote growth and development.
