Walk in the Meadow Sensory Rug in detail

Take this extraordinary walk of sensory activities!

This isn’t like any other walk you’ve ever done! Using your imagination, pretend to be a thirsty bear walking to get a drink. Isn’t that much more fun than being told to reach down to touch your toes? Therapy goals can be challenging for children to understand and our paths provide clarity. If you have a frog and footprints to follow, it is an immediate understanding. Our paths are designed by a pediatric therapist; perfect for those who need therapy and those who just need a brain break. Check out the fun, sensory activities listed below!

Testimonial

“Walking and moving in the the figure 8 pattern on the nature path promotes improved balance, increased attention and sensory regulation to support learning. A variety of shapes and patterns allow for jumping, hopping and stepping to get proprioceptive feedback for calming and organization. I highly recommend the sensory paths as a valuable tool… –Patti, Dayton, OH
