I wanted everyone to know about angelsense. It is a lifesaver and promotes independence. https://www.angelsense.com/pricing/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=214987221&utm_content=185838859333&utm_term=angelsense&network=g&device=c&matchtype=e&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=214987221&gbraid=0AAAAADl_r5s0kBrUWpyfsQyNrR48Fc5l5&gclid=Cj0KCQjw79nUBhCgARIsADSHka2Sa9WWp_nzNd8Ht3xB3qX1fTfxHjMKxqnJAiB0Ml2BiKTERdsHnAYaAoQkEALw_wcB

Sensory Shower Challenge Week 3: Building Body Water Tolerance
One of the biggest hurdles to showering isn't the routine itself—it's how water feels. For many autistic children and other sensory-sensitive individuals, water hitting different parts of the body can be overwhelming. That's why this week isn't about taking a full shower. It's about building comfort, one step at a time. This Week's Goal: Help your child become comfortable with water touching: 💧 Hands 💧 Arms 💧 Feet 💧 Shoulders 💧 Torso Success Looks Like: Your child stays calm while water touches these areas—even if it's only for a few seconds at first. Remember: calm is the goal, not perfection. Try These Ideas - Start with a washcloth or damp sponge before using running water. - Let your child control the water whenever possible. - Use warm (or preferred temperature) water consistently. - Practice one body part at a time. - Celebrate every small success, even if it's just touching the water. Every positive experience teaches your child's nervous system that water is safe. Those small moments build confidence, and confidence builds independence. We'd love to hear from you! Which body part has been the easiest so far? Which has been the biggest challenge? Share your wins and questions below so we can support each other.
