Fidget Finger Loop

Cosy Shades

Like a sensory merry-go-round for your fingers, the "Fidgety Finger Loops" will keep children engaged for hours.

Cosy Shades filter out annoying hues in classrooms or cafetarias, softening the light for a "cozier" space.

In the brightly colored loop, kids can work on tactile discrimination, sequencing, and color recognition while pushing a hiddenball through a maze of different colored and textured compartment.

Designed for standard fluorescent fixtures used in school. Each pack includes 4 flame-retardant panels (137,2 cm x 61 cm) Six magnets allow for single or double swags on each fixture.

The blue canvas loop offers similar fidgety fun but in a solid color to reduce visual stimulation, and with a mesh transition panel to addd assistance with visual tracking of the target ball.

It is not until about the age of ten or twelve that the brain is fully communicating between both hemispheres. Movement is critical for cognition especially in young children because it provides the learner with the opportunity to utilize both sides of the brain. We all rely on movement in the learning experience. Activities like manipulating a Tangle help children and adults stay engaged and focused, enhancing the attention.

Balance Creating “Core Stability” & “Active Mobility”

A strong postural system makes a huge impact on individuals’ perceptions of themselves, their surroundings and their functional abilities. A strong trunk enables a child, for instance, to breathe and communicate more effectively. For those with sensory processing disorders, active sitting provides a more appropriate outlet for wiggling, and permits movement without disruption

KontrolBall The KontrolBall is all about control; the control of stability and directional rotation. This is made possible through a series of 6 handgrips attached along the ball’s equator, in alternating horizontal and vertical orientations. The handles and their orientations make it possible to get secure grips with two hands, whether the person is on or off the ball. With this ability, a physical therapist can easily rotate a child lying across the ball to the exact pattern she wants. The child can hold onto the ball’s grips to gain a greater sense of security. Size 65cm.

Movement - Gait Teaching children to Walk by «Taking Steps»…

It’s not just about “walking”…it’s about “taking steps”. Recent studies indicate that children who have a good trunk control, the right equipment, a proper program and an atmosphere to walk exhibit higher IQ scores and better language development than those who are non-ambulatory. A walking program also encourages better gross motor skills, stronger bones, better breathing, bowel and bladder function, socialization skill, etc…that go along with weight bearing.

Sensory Motor Solutions

Many individuals respond well to weighted products as part of a good sensory diet. These “heavy work” or deep pressure inputs help regulate the proprioceptive sensory system which in turn helps improve body awareness. When additional pressure or weight is applied to the body, it has a calming and organizing effect on the nervous system, so may help improve attention to task and/or maintain appropriate behaviours and prevent meltdowns.

Vibration tools benefit individuals who : • Frequently chew on the necklines of their shirts; • Bite others; • Are picky eaters especially because they are sensitive to textures in the mouth; • Dislike having their teeth brushed or face washed; • Are diagnosed with autism or autistic spectrum disorders; • Needs to strengthen mouth muscles by chewing; • Have been tube fed and have aversion to eating.
