Recommendations for a safe sensory swing for an eight-year-old with SEN

[Seahorsesplendour]

Need driven by ever evolving SEN, sensory seeking needs, etc think it will be a good fit ! Don’t have loads of money to spare there are some reasonably priced ones about but hard to know where to start!! Safety paramount!!

8 year old boy needing constant moving but also gets a lot of comfort from cocooning, pressure etc

any recommendations grateful reviewed!! Amazon links welcome!! Thanks in advance!!

I would start by working out if you need a free standing one with a frame or if it is for indoors whether you have somewhere suitable for the attachment.

Then I would think about what type of swing you want. If DS likes to be cocooned, do you want a fabric swing DS can climb inside?

It is worth checking if you have a lending library for SEN equipment local to you. That way, you could try different swings before committing to buying one.

We have Southpaw sensory swings, but they might be more than you want to spend.

As pp has said depends on individual need.
We had similar to this at our special school.

Cheaper versions on Amazon but not sure about quality. You’d need a frame or tree.

We had a frame in the garden with swings and a seesaw swing, climbing frame and slide and mini trampoline.
Our daughter loved the swing for her sensory needs. As she got older we needed something more substantial.
Be careful what you Google!! I made the mistake of searching “ adult swing” aaaaargh!! 😳
The pod like garden chairs on a frame are often on offer.

I’m sorry @24Dogcuddler but that made me laugh.

Haha good. At least I didn’t Google it at work!
