Getting Inside Their Heads

Understanding children with Sensory Processing Disorder is no easy task, especially for a parent who either do not have SPD themselves or who do not recall what it was like to be a child trying to cope with it. All in all, getting ‘into the head’ of an SPD child is a tough thing for many of us to try to do, but it is possible.

It becomes possible through language and imagination. Read one of the articles found here in “Understanding SPD in Children”, and we encourage you to use your imagination to put yourself into these children’s shows. It’s not easy, but it can be done… one word at a time.
