Most children are able to  experience more than one sense at a time (touch, smell, sight, etc.).  These are necessary when it comes to determining how to react to our environment or certain situations. Children with cerebral palsy, autism, or Down's Syndrome aren't always able to do this.

Sensory Integration Therapy
encourages the child to experience their senses through playful activities. It helps children experience
 touch, sound, movement, and balance but, does it, in a non-threatening environment.

In Part Two of this in-depth look at Sensory Integration Therapy, Occupational Therapist, Jean Davison, touches on what it is, who it benefits, the cost, and how to find the right therapist for your child.
