Do you find yourself longing for a walk on across a beach after being indoors all day? Does relaxing background music soothe you or make you feel irritable? Your reactions and your children’s reactions, relate to how your body needs, takes in and processes sensory input.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8976156404496692597-6131299313354839129?l=sensory-project.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>kath101http://www.blogger.com/profile/10655567268546919279noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8976156404496692597.post-10014445708205814132008-11-16T19:03:00.000Z2008-11-16T19:05:32.063Z‘The senses are important, (in fact key to survival), because everything we experience from the world outside or from within our own bodies has to come into the brain through the senses.
