Hi everyone, just a quick question since I am now a homeowner and really really struggling. I’m having a hard time getting used to everything, I want to make one of the rooms into a sensory room. For those of you who don’t know me, I am almost totally blind and asd. My ideas so far, trampoline with netting, and foam mat underneath, a sensory swing, beanbag chair, I have loads of different textured blankets, A sensory bin, I have fidgets, slime, scented stickers, squash mellows, and I also have some things like a thumb piano which is like this little musical version of bop it.

I would love some musical instruments like a piano or some thing, I don’t know how to play but I love music and would love some thing like this, not sure if it would be very loud though. I think I could find one of those mini keyboards

Do you like scents?

If so, perhaps a plug in diffuser that you can add lavender oil to?

Awkward, I would love that! I actually love scented slime and scented anything really. I found a scented slime that smells really sweet, I think it’s lollipop or something. Or sweetheart something like that. So yes something like that I would really like.

Sorry everyone, as you might imagine I use dictation and it doesn’t say everything I say properly. That was for upward son, not awkward. Hopefully dictation will listen to me now

I'm not visually impaired but I have a friend who is. He taught himself to play the keyboard just by trial and error. Definitely worth trying! I bet you could get one second hand for a decent price. Maybe a drum too? Something like bongos could be fun.
