Defusing Tactile Defensiveness in Children with Blindness, Autism, Down Syndrome, and More!
Try using the Koosh Switch with children who are tactile defensive, a condition often found in children with blindness, autism, PDD, FAS, and Down syndrome. By hooking a rewarding switch adapted toy up to the switch, children will be immediately rewarded for touching the Koosh. A Switch Adapted Bubble Blower would be a real treat!
