The holidays are quickly approaching and I have come up with a list of ten gift ideas for a child with sensory needs. So often, we associate sensory needs with autism, but children with many other diagnoses may have sensory processing difficulties, too. I hope this list helps you find a meaningful gift for a child in your life with special needs!

Letters From Mom

Today is all about PARENTS! I’m sharing my newest resource, called “Letters from Mom.” It is a project very dear to my heart; I still have the many letters my parents have written me over the years. The idea is simple…Each fall, before your child begins a new school year, you can use my template to write your child a letter. You can print the letters and handwrite them, or you can type your letter into the template. Either way, save all of the letters in a folder or on your computer and give them to your child on a special day, such as their 18th birthday, high school graduation, etc.

You Are Enough

Hey Mama,

Just wanted to check in on you. In a social media world full of bloggers and photographers with seemingly perfect lives, real motherhood can seem lonely. I want you to know that you are enough. You are good enough. You are smart enough. You are pretty enough. You are strong enough.

You. Are. Enough.

Your sweet little babe looks up to you in a million ways and there isn’t a better, more qualified mama than you. Take some time for yourself today. You deserve it. In fact, you deserve to take time for yourself every day. Yep, you heard me, every. single. day. It doesn’t have to be a lot, but it does have to be something.
