I wear glasses and walking around with no glasses on always makes me feel tinyy!!
Tucking your arms into your shirt when you're cold!! (Or your caregiver's if applicable. I like touching mine with my cold freezing icicle fingers hashtag hypothyroidism)
OK. Get you a pair of big baggy jeans that are way too long and cuff them. Cuff them a LOT. Put THICK cuffs on there i mean 2-3 inch height pants cuffs.
Hold your cup with both hands !!!
I have mentioned this before but drinking out of huge plastic cups. I like when the rim of the cup touches my forehead when I drink. Comically large cup
I once got one of those huge rainbow lollipops and walking around licking it did actually make me feel like a kid in a propeller hat
I am pretty much always fidgeting with my fingers in some way esp when walking around. Dinosaur arms + fidgeting with fingers is great !! Also do not be afraid to do flappy hands in public nobody cares or will say anything
I have also mentioned this before but walking without bending your knees very much. Biiiig stomp. Also sitting on the floor with your legs straight out
Collecting literally anything! I collect clown dolls, strange trinkets, vintage porcelain animal figurines, pins and patches, etc!!
Also DIYing always makes me feel tinier!! Lately for my puppy regression i have made a body harness (out of a dog harness that i just sized up with scraps of backpack straps) and 3D paw pads for my hand warmers !!
What are hoodie strings for if not to gnaw on
Keep your eyes on the ground when you walk and (safely) pick up cool things you find! I have a baggie with me at all times for this purpose!! I have found things like buttons, toys, pins, etc this way!
You have heard of patterned socks but have you heard of plain socks that are a little bit too big. Chefs kiss. Maybe not for under shoes but too-big socks are always good for walking around
Pointing at things with just one βοΈ finger
Also for some reason keeping my lips a little parted makes me feel small? Like my mouth open just a tiny bit? Maybe it's more whimsical who knows
Echolalia also makes me feel small. Even if I'm doing it on purpose (im usually not tho #myautism) just repeating sounds I hear always does the trick !! Esp with things like cars going vvrrroooom or birds going cheep cheep. Wonderful π I am my own soundboard
Also an autism tip: scripting or echolalia with childhood shows! Doesn't have to be "for kids", but much more fun if it's something nostalgic !! Like 50% of everything that comes out of my mouth when small are lines from movies or shows. If you see me say something oddly specific chances are it's a movie quote. Actually even if you dont catch it a lot of what I say is just quotes from obscure childhood movies
Plushie keychains but on your pants loops !! I have a Taz (looney tunes) plush keychain bag that holds my glasses wipes!
