Hyperactive children may have a sensory integration problem that makes it difficult for them to select and respond appropriately to the everyday stimuli or events in their environment. For example, if they have a "filtering" problem, they may not know whether it is more important to pay attention to the teacher’s voice or to the sounds of an airplane, the door closing or a chirping bird outside.
This book, written for parents and teachers, provides sensory integration techniques that can be used immediately to help hyperactive children develop more integrated behaviour. As children begin to function in a more appropriate way with the help of this approach, their self esteem improves, which helps in all areas of their life.
It is an easy to read, easy to understand book, with easy to implement tips through out the book. A parent questionnaire helps parents identify if particular sensory areas (eg touch, hearing etc) may be impacting their children’s behaviour.

A book of importance to parents and teachers everywhere, it identifies the traditionally ignored physical causes of inattention. Poor concentration is often seen to be at the centre of conduct and learning problems in children, and often it is viewed as a behavioural problem. First Steps challenges this view, exposing the specific effect of early motor neuron development on the ability to concentrate. Invaluable to those who care for children, this ground-breaking investigation provides a programme of physical exercises that will effectively focus a child's attention. Areas such as sleep, walking and spelling are examined, and links are made with topics such as autism, epilepsy, dyslexia, schizophrenia and chronic fatigue syndrome. A relevant, revelatory book, First Steps shows how carrying out simple exercises for only a few minutes a day can greatly reduce inattention in a child. An essential resource for teachers, it is also a must-read for concerned parents.

Twenty-eight years of varied experience has led Roy Anderson to the innovative and exciting conclusions put forward in this book. Following three years in an industrial laboratory, he taught secondary school children in a disadvantaged community and became involved in remedial teaching. This led to posts at a junior school, a Remedial Reading Centre, and a Reading and Language Service. In retirement Roy has helped even more children with his weekly visits to a primary school. His methods continue to help children overcome their learning difficulties.

Practicing yoga involves being calm and focussed and having heightened awareness of the body’s functions and movements. For children with sensory processing needs – who either have low sensory thresholds and are overwhelmed by sensory stimulation, or have high thresholds and do not register stimulation – yoga can be hugely beneficial.
This book presents easy-to-follow basic postures and sequences for children of different ages and which can be easily adapted for adults. Nicole Cuomo gives practical advice for how to choose appropriate sequences according to the child’s particular needs and mood, knowing that yoga will be most beneficial when it is fun! She also includes photographs of each posture to supplement her descriptions.
This practical book provides a wealth of ideas for therapists, educators and parents to help their children with sensory processing needs.

LEARNING THROUGH PLAY
One of the best ways for children with autism, Asperger's, and sensory processing disorders to learn is through play. Children improve their motor skills, language skills, and social skills by moving their bodies and interacting with their environment. Yet the biggest challenges parents, teachers, and loved ones face with children on the autism spectrum or with sensory processing disorders is how to successfully engage them in play.
Pediatric occupational therapist Tara Delaney provides the answer. In 101 Games and Activities for Children with Autism, Asperger's, and Sensory Processing Disorders, she shows you how to teach your children by moving their bodies through play. These interactive games are quick to learn but will provide hours of fun and learning for your child. And many of the games can be played indoors or outdoors, so your child can enjoy them at home, outside, or on field trips.
More than one hundred games that help your child:
make eye-contact, stay focused, and strengthen his or her motor skills
associate words with objects and improve language and numerical skills
learn how to interact with others, how to take turns, and other social skills needed for attending preschool and school
