Benefits
A multi-sensory experience is much like a playground for those with Down Syndrome. The ability to manipulate and control one’s own environment can be exciting if not thrilling to individuals. It can help them relax and let go of some of their frustrations, as well as empower them by allowing them to control their environment, motivated by the stimulating sensory rewards.
By using interactive switches, specialized microphones with visual feedback and touch panels, an individual can actually see the impact of their actions. Learning can also take place through selected wall images and the use of interactive colours and sounds. Development is the focus of a sensory room designed for our clients with Down Syndrome and the outcome can be astonishing.
