Sensory-Friendly Activities

Sensory-friendly activities are designed to create a comfortable environment for individuals who experience sensory sensitivities, such as those with autism or sensory processing disorder. These activities minimize overwhelming stimuli like loud noises, bright lights, or strong smells, allowing participants to engage at their own pace. Examples include quiet zones, dim lighting, or activities with gentle sounds. The goal is to promote relaxation, enjoyment, and participation without causing sensory overload, supporting emotional well-being and social interaction in a respectful and accommodating manner.
