This book, which was written by a teacher, provides detailed information about recognizing sensory disorders in children. It also offers practical strategies parents can use to help children with sensory problems. If your child seems clumsy, tactile defensive, confused, is sensitive to sounds and acitivities that do not bother other children or exhibits other behavior that indicates there may be sensory issues, this book is extremely helpful in understanding and dealing with the underlying cause.

By Kristen H. posted Jun 4, 2008 There is a follow up book to this one, called the Out of Sync Child has Fun. It has wonderful activities that work on sensory integration difficulties.
