Easy Calm Down Kit for Sensory Needs and Fidgeting

Share Button

Children are learning about their emotions, which seem to take over often. We are working on it, but it’s something we have to work through regularly. That is why having a calm-down kit works so well.

Today, I am sharing some favorite things for a sensory meltdown, a constant fidgeter, or much needed quiet time.

Calm Down Kit for Sensory Meltdowns, Fidgeting and Quiet Time

Whether you have a child with special needs or not, I think every child can benefit from a calm-down kit occasionally. It’s a beautiful box, basket, or bin you can always have on hand.

We also take it for holiday visits (which can be overwhelming), vacations, and any overnight stays.

Therapy Putty

This putty isn’t like your playdough. It is therapeutic grade putty and made for different levels of resistance. The colors are also calming. My son is always calmer when he works with the yellow and blue putty.
