Candyce Bruce and Paola Diora are two veteran special education teachers who have founded Jewels for Families, a non-profit organization with the purpose of opening a Sensory Room. Children with autism, intellectual disabilities, cerebral palsy, multiple disabilities, brain injury, sensory processing disorders and sensory overload can benefit from a multi-sensory environment.
A multisensory environment is a place of relaxation that helps reduce anxiety and tension. The room comprises of materials created to stimulate or soothe the senses through lights, sounds, touch and smell. Bubble tubes, fiber optics, tactile panels and projectors stimulate and calm the child’s sensory needs. Multi-sensory rooms are used around the world: Canada,Russia, China, South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia, Sweden, France, Spain, Germany, United Kingdom, Sweden, South Africa.
Can you believe that a city like Los Angeles doesn’t have a sensory room yet?
