Successful strategies for children with sensory regulation problems
Unidentified sensory processing problems often cause heartache in families struggling to understand their children's misbehavior. Children with sensory problems overreact or underreact to everyday sensory experiences. The resulting behaviors range from battles over dressing to difficulty functioning in a busy classroom. Now, two psychologists who are parents of children with sensory processing difficulties show how to recognize sensory processing problems and evaluate treatment options, view the child's world through a "sensory lens," and implement strategies for handling sensory challenges at home, at school, and in 21st-century kid culture.
