Sensory Processing Disorder

Summer heat can be overwhelming for neurodiverse kids, especially those who struggle with sensory overload or recognizing when their bodies are getting too hot. With a few simple, sensory-friendly strategies like predictable hydration routines, cooling tools, and shade breaks families can help their children stay safe, comfortable, and confident all season long.

March is National Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, a time to highlight inclusion, accessibility, and support for children with developmental disabilities. By understanding conditions like autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, and sensory processing challenges, we can create inclusive learning environments where every child feels at home.
