Has anyone ever suggested that your loved one with Down syndrome has sensory processing deficits? Can transitioning between activities or places be challenging? Sensory processing impacts all of us, but for many individuals with Down syndrome, the inability to control their sensory needs can impact their independence and community participation. This presentation will describe sensory processing and the different ways sensory processing can impact individuals with Down syndrome as they age. Practical sensory activities that can be incorporated daily as well as affordable equipment suggestions will be provided.
