When our son was first diagnosed with sensory issues there wasn't much information out there or products to help improve our lives. Since then there have been some wonderful books and products designed to make life better.
We wanted to about a product we've learned about called Senseez pillows.
Senseez pillows were developed by a mom whose son always had trouble sitting in one place. After he was diagnosed with a special need, she spoke to an occupational therapist who recommended a vibrating mat. While he loved the vibrations, the mat was large and heavy, needed to be plugged in, and made her son stick out when he used it.
Senseez pillows help with relaxation and calming down. Children who are easily distracted, have tactile sensitivities, trouble concentrating, and difficulty with getting to sleep can especially benefit.
Senseez pillows are lightweight, portable, easy to clean, are colorful, and offered in five different shapes.
Children with sensory processing disorders or sensory integration dysfunction enjoy, and often need or crave, the input these pillows provide. Under sensitive children benefit because the pillows can provide the input needed to help calm and regulate their system. You could even place the pillow next to your child to help them drift into a peaceful sleep. The Oversensitive child can benefit from using a Senseez pillow because it can help to increase their tolerance to tactile input. Either way, its uses within the scope of a sensory processing disorder are invaluable.
Kids can use them anywhere:
- Home
- School
- Library
- Restaurants
- Car or plane rides
- The dentist
- Haircut
Senseez pillows are made with a vibrating unit that is self contained with a secure door to the batteries which means no cords or electrical wires. The vibrating unit can be removed and is replaceable. The pillows are made from vinyl, which makes them easy to clean and water resistant, and stuffed with thin layers of poly foam. The Senseez pillow comes with a tactile vinyl or furry cover.
