Sensory and motor interaction with the world is the foundation of growth, development, and learning for a child. Sensory deficits can be linked to atypical and challenging behavior in young children. This workshop explores how to utilize strategies for the mouth, move, touch, look and listen categories to help children self-regulate in a child care setting. We will also look at way for adults to understand what strategies their own nervous systems employ to achieve and maintain appropriate alert states throughout their daily work.
