Advantages of Dark Room Play Dens
Sensory dark rooms have the advantage of being extremely versatile, they can be vivid visual play centres filled with glow-in-the-dark toys or they can be quiet and calm places where users can relax and avoid becoming overstimulated. By making lights appear more pronounced, sensory dark rooms can also help develop hand-eye coordination and improve visual tracking skills.
How Do Sensory Toys Help People with Autism?
Sensory toys help children with autism relax, focus and maintain an emotional equilibrium when dealing with potentially challenging situations. Sensory visual and tactile toys are also a great way to encourage group play sessions that have been shown to develop social learning skills such as negotiating, planning and sharing.
Ideal for People with Visual Impairments
Dark rooms filled with glow in the dark toys are great for making sensory spaces more inclusive for people with visual impairments. The extra amount of contrast between the dark floor, walls and ceiling and the brighter outside can help people to map out their surroundings better.
Perfect for Visual Assessments
For children who are having the acuity of their sight and sensitivity to visual phenomena tested, dark rooms can be extremely helpful. By providing a relaxing, calming environment where sensory input is easy to control, sensory dark rooms are a fantastic environment for occupational therapists to provide visual or psychological assessments.
Suitable for Hypo-Sensitivity and Hypersensitivity
Incorporating the use of visual sensory toys into sensory stimulation rooms can help children who are hypersensitive or hyposensitive be calmer and more focused, allowing them to learn better through play. The wide range of different colours and levels of interactivity provided by the toys in the bag ensures that there are appropriate items for children with a wide spectrum of different sensory needs.
Learning Through Play
Visual and tactile sensory toys are designed to help children with autism and sensory processing disorders learn more about their senses and how to interact with the world around them in a way that's enjoyable. Through the use of play as an educational experience, children with autism can learn to better understand what experiences are likely to trigger overstimulation and how to manage those experiences without becoming overwhelmed.
