When I was little, lights and fishbowls were super important to me. It helped me feel centered and more comfortable in the world I am apart of..lights still play an important role in relaxing me to this day. With being really low with his IQ, it reminds me of of my little brother he was diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder too but he is more like a sensory type with touch and feeling, that helps his stuttering and social interaction when I need visuals and quiet. So what I learned is pretty lights and beanbags are a great way to relax us and get us comfortable..easier to learn that way..I'm thinking thats what ur talking...hope I could somehow help. I stink at explaining myself. But I appreciate your work in the special needs dept. It saved me from a lot when I was in school, including bullying.
