Sensory regulation plays a crucial role in how children navigate their world, influencing their ability to stay calm, focus, and engage in everyday activities. When a child struggles with sensory processing—whether they are hypersensitive to stimuli like noise and textures or seek intense sensory input through movement—it can affect their emotional regulation and participation in daily routines. Research suggests that these challenges, particularly in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, stem from differences in brain connectivity, neural pruning, and sensory pathway development. By implementing tailored strategies, such as occupational therapy, sensory-friendly environments, and structured sensory breaks, we can help children feel more secure, regulated, and ready to learn.
