Sensory Fun Activities for Children with Autism
Play Dough Play Time
Playdough is a great way to stimulate a child’s sense of touch. The feel of the dough, as well as the different colors available, can add variety and interest to playtime. You can also add extra ingredients such as glitter or small objects like beads to make playtime more interesting. Best of all, kids will love getting their hands messy!
Messy Art Projects
Getting messy is not only fun but also a great way to provide tactile stimulation to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Finger painting is a great option because it allows a child to explore different textures while creating something unique. You can also use shaving cream or mud for even more sensory exploration. The sky is the limit!
Learning Through Movement
Movement-based activities can provide valuable opportunities for learning through play. Dancing and jumping are great ways to improve coordination and strength while providing lots of fun! Try playing games that involve movements, like musical chairs or hot potato, or just let your child explore by running around in circles in the backyard.
Incorporating sensory fun activities, your child can have valuable opportunities for learning through play and exploration. For more support and resources, we encourage you to start your ABA Therapy journey with Circle City ABA. Contact us today.
