REMINDER:
We have a new page (The Real Sensory Super Heroes).

We won't be posting on this old page anymore, so please head to our new page and follow it to keep up to date with all of our news and events... facebook.com/therealsensorysuperheroes

20/08/2024

WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please like our new page.

Let's just say we know a lot more now than we did 7 years ago when we first launched Sensory Super Heroes and our page!

😭 Sadly, we somehow lost ownership of it a few years ago and have been protesting and lobbying to Meta ever since, with no success.

The time has come to let it go... and face the reality of starting again with a brand new page.

This means letting go of 7 years of work building a community of more than 7.8k followers, and 30 reviews (with a 100% five-star rating) 😱

Can you help us by liking our new page and leaving a review on there? 🙏 https://www.facebook.com/therealsensorysuperheroes

Also, feel free to share our new page with anyone that you think might benefit from what we have to share 😊🙏

We are so grateful for everyone's support of our small family business!

Jenna ❤️.. and the friendly team at Sensory Super Heroes

The first Sunday of August every year is unofficially celebrated around the world as Sisters’ Day.

I know I'm a few days late (which is totally my style, of course, as an Audhd woman)... but I wanted to mark the occasion by acknowledging my amazing sister Kally 😍

You have backed me 100% over the years, volunteering your time to help bring my vision to life, and to build an amazing Sensory Super Heroes community to raly around us and keep us going through highs and lows.

AND we've had a lot of fun and laughs along the way, which is such a blessing!

I'm so grateful for your energy, dedication and positive vibes 🙏💕

Jenna ❤️

PS. Who else has an amazing and supportive sister?

NEW Sleeptime Bundle 🛏️💤🥰
sensorysuperheroes.com/products/sleeptime-bundle

Our new Sleeptime Bundle is a little selection of our 'best sellers' for helping your Little Super Hero at bedtime ☺️

We wanted to offer a super generous saving for this bundle as we know that sleep is very important and we also know that getting to sleep can be a common problem for our neuro-divergent customers.

This bundle offers a massive 30% saving and includes a carry bag as well as a:
- Compression Bed Sheet (choose Single, Double or Queen Bed)
- Large Ooze Tube (choose Pink or Blue)
- Squishy Fidget Mr Husky

---

Our calming and soft COMPRESSION BED SHEET (AKA Lycra Bed Sock) has been reported to help individuals with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing differences, anxiety, insomnia and other sleep challenges. They provide deep pressure input that helps to calm an over stimulated nervous system by flooding the brain with the simple message "I am safe", and set our little super heroes up for a long, restful, rejuvenating sleep.

Another benefit is they stay on all night, for even the most wriggly sleepers... and therefore they also don't kick off the doona you might place over top! They are designed to use in the Australian climate and comfortable to use in all seasons.

---

The large OOZE TUBE is a beautiful visual tool that is perfect for keeping on a bedside table. It can help your Little Super Hero relax and unwind at bedtime, as they can focus their attention on the slow-moving goop and enjoy watching it fall to the bottom like flowing lava.

---

Try using the SQUISHY FIDGET as a way to focus an anxious mind and slow it down. You could ask your child to hold the squishy fidget whilst closing their eyes... then think about what it feels like, what it smells like, and count how long it takes to return to size after it's squished. Maybe you can incorporate a breathing exercise in time with each squish and slow release (like inflating a balloon inside their belly, then imagine they are slowly letting the air out of the balloon as they breathe out).

---

We also highly recommend adding a meditation / visualisation book to this bundle by buying one online (click links below) and reading a different story to your child each night.

Some Little Super Heroes may also benefit from having the Wilbarger Brushing Protocol done on them at bedtime, keeping in mind that the correct 'Therapressure Brush' must be used and parents / carers must be trained by an Occupational Therapist qualified in this technique.

If only this was commonly understood by everyone. What an amazing world it would be.

Let's remind ourselves (and all adults that are in our little super hero's life) to get CURIOUS, and ask "what is this behaviour trying to communicate?" ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you 🙏

Thank you Alison for this joyous feedback about our Calming Sensory Swing Combo with Stand and for the magical photo..... it makes us all feel calmer just looking at it 😍🙏

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Enjoyed by all!

”The Swing is very much enjoyed by all of the children. It was particularly beneficial for one of the children who is Autistic as she loves to swing, so we are grateful to be able to provide this option for her.”

This message from Alison was a timely reminder for our family (during these winter school holidays) to go slow and take time to tune-in to the sensory experiences that soothe and ground us, and ask the question "What is something simple you love?".

As a big person.... let's lead by example for the little people around us... and DO the simple things that help us feel joyous, full, grounded & safe ❤️

Please share this timely reminder from Alison in case it is helpful to others... and add your own thoughts about what sensory input helps you feel regulated and wonderful 😊

For me its:
🐦 Immersing myself in the sound of bird song in nature ... really allowing myself to lie there in my calming swing and get lost in the songs of their world 🐦

🌳 The smell of rainforest 🌳

❤️ A long heartfelt hug on the couch with no sound except our breath ❤️ just delicious ❤️

Thank you Josephine for your amazing feedback about our Crash Bag and for the adorable photo of your son 😍🙏

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Best addition to our lifestyle!
We couldn’t be more happy with our beautiful new crash bag!
Our son is really into stars and instantly loved the soft textured star pattern on the cover. He is usually very hesitant with new experiences but not in the case of realising how perfect this mat was to run and jump onto. He played with it for two hours straight after we set it up and hasn’t stopped going back to it since.
The quality is so great, it feels sturdy like it can handle everything our son needs out of it but also soft & comfy.

Our Peanut Balls are very versatile! They are a gym ball / yoga ball but in a peanut shape (two rounded ends), making them more stable, able to support more independence and safety, and suitable for lots of fun bouncing with both feet flat on the ground if needed.

They're an important addition to every therapy clinic, sensory room, and home as they are a really safe tool for kids that:

- crave movement (especially bouncing) in order to self-regulate
need to improve their core strength and bilateral integration (but in a fun way, like wheelbarrow walks)

- climb, bounce and flip upside down on the couch when watching a screen (they can gently bounce on the Peanut Ball over and over instead... for as long as they need to get their movement needs met)

- need a bit more stability than using a normal round gym ball

- need a good option for rainy day movement and fun
need to do therapy exercises for improving core strength, balance, bilateral integration and coordination such as "Wheelbarrow Walks"

- would enjoy saddle sitting independently and bouncing gently while watching a movie or doing gaming

- crave movement during desktop tasks to satisfy their need to move and help to activate their ability to focus attention
