ND DC and sibling - separate toys/ safe space?

[Ahna65]

Hi all

looking for tips. My DD5 (autistic, and nv) has quite a lot of challenging behaviours atm. Eating lots of non food things (whether it’s wire wool to keep mice away / jigsaw puzzle pieces), climbing on dangerous things, generally having the tendency to trash whatever happens to be around.

i feel like DD4 is being impacted because i keep putting toys away or getting rid of stuff in case it gets eaten or trashed. To some extent I can move stuff to DD4’s bedroom
but a lot of the time we are all in the living room and it’s difficult to keep bringing things in. It might sound like a small issue but I would like DD4 to have her own play zone that’s not impacted by DD5 - in an ideal world DD5 would have her own sensory room and such but we don’t have endless rooms!

anyone had a similar issue and solved it at all?

If DDs have their own rooms, I wouldn’t focus on keeping toys unsafe for DD1 in DD2’s room. Where it is safe to do so, DD2 can then bring one/a small selection into the living room to play with but then return them to the bedroom once finished playing. It will become routine after a while.
