Starting Sensory Therapy Summary

Starting Sensory Therapy: Fun Activities for the Home and Classroom by Bonnie Arnwine

Starting Sensory Integration Therapy offers 100+ activities and games for children with Sensory Processing Disorders (SPDs). Parent of a son with SPD, author Bonnie Arnwine chose activities that require minimal time, money, and clean-up. Most ingredients are already on hand: empty yogurt cups, string, soap, Kool-aid, flour, paper plates, etc. If the kids tire of an activity, an Extend It! section shows how to use the same ingredients in new and different ways. Kids have fun while activities exercise the seven sensory muscles: the visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, oral, vestibular, and proprioceptive senses. Activities can be enjoyed with others, so children also benefit from interacting socially with their peers, parents, and teachers.

I am so excited to try out many of the ideas . . . my children's sensory needs will be met in a simple, fun way without them even knowing it!-Michele Brewster, Parent

I have just finished reading Starting Sensory Integration Therapy and I loved it. It was very easy to read, and the personal stories helped me to connect with the therapies and activities. I love how the activities use regular househould items that I already have around the house. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!--Debra Ponder, Parent
