Therapeutic toys for Aiden's new sensory toolbox

Posted Jan 6, 2025
Aiden could really use some fidgets and therapeutic toys to help him manage his emotions better. His foster mom has already gotten him a weighted blanket, and his case manager has given him a gym bag, which is a great start. He would enjoy filling his bag with sensory toys that he can reach for when he’s feeling upset or out of sorts. Having these tools on hand will make a real difference for Aiden as he learns to navigate his feelings.

Aiden is 12 years old and lives in ME

Aiden is a young man with a passion for LEGOS, cooking, and exploring the outdoors. He enjoys discovering his new community, but he often finds large crowds overwhelming, preferring one-on-one interactions with his peers. Recently, he joined the Scouts, where he is enthusiastically learning wilderness first aid, an activity that resonates with his love for nature. Additionally, Aiden has taken a step towards fitness by joining the local gym and is currently searching for a dojo that offers small group classes, where he can begin his journey in Karate. Through these activities, Aiden is cultivating his interests while finding ways to connect with others in a comfortable environment.
