What Are the Advantages of Acrylic Mirrors?
Acrylic mirrors are 17 times stronger than glass, making them highly resistant to impacts and extremely difficult to shatter. Acrylic mirrors also have the advantage of being lighter than traditional glass mirrors, making them much easier to transport and install.
What Makes Mirrors Great for Sensory Rooms?
Using mirrors alongside other sensory equipment is a great way to create exciting visual effects and help create a stimulating, interactive experience that captures peoples attention and imagination. They're also a great way to make the sensory room feel more spacious, which can be particularly helpful if you're designing a sensory room on a budget.
Promotes Self-Awareness
The SpaceKraft Sensory Room Acrylic Mirror provides children with a unique sensory experience that can encourage visual development and develop an awareness of object permanence. This helps the child to become aware of themselves as an individual person, which is considered to be an important developmental milestone.
Improves Coordination and Motor Skills
Mirroring movement activities has been shown to help children with autism improve their physical coordination and gross motor skills. Many people with autism find it difficult to ascertain where their body is without visual feedback, and mirrors can be instrumental in providing the feedback required to learn better control over their body.
Scratches Are Easy to Repair
When a glass mirror gets scratched, it's extremely difficult to restore the surface of the mirror. With acrylic this isn't the case, you can actually use a small amount of acrylic polish to fix the scratch, making acrylic mirrors a great choice for interactive sensory rooms.
Simple to Install
Thanks to the inclusion of wall fixing brackets with your purchase and the lightweight nature of acrylic, this mirror is simple and easy to install. The wall-mounting screws also have the advantage of preventing the mirror from falling, further improving safety.
