The VESTIBULAR sense is a key element in sensory integration therapy.
These recreational activities are self- paced and fun, making them ideal for both stimulating the under-responsive child and calming for the over- responsive or sensory seeking child. Turn the page to view our stock of confidence boosting swings and other active products which, through weight shifting, stimulate the vestibular sense.
Children and adults who are sensory challenged will often use toys that spin or bounce to stimulate their vestibular system - or their inner ear. The inner ear helps with balance and lets the body know when, and how fast, it is moving. Some of our favourite vestibular activities involve playground accessories such as swings, trampolines, bouncers, and rockers.
Products that use balance can also be found in the MOTOR Chapter.
