Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects communication (verbal and non verbal), social interaction, and behaviour.

Sensory issues can have a significant impact on an individual's ability to function in the school, home, or community settings. Knowing what to include in a sensory kit for those with ASD can be challenging. Observation can be useful to inform sensory preferences and special interests, especially for those who experience difficulties with verbal communication. We have compiled a few products from areas of our catalogue that could be useful.

Please note: These are suggestions only, and may not be suitable for all. Other products on the catalogue may also be useful. Remember that sensory and learning needs will vary, even when there is a common diagnosis.
