Sensory support can help children feel calmer, more focused, and better regulated during everyday activities. 💙✨ Sensory-based tools and activities are often used to support attention, emotional regulation, learning, communication, and daily routines at home and school. Every child has different sensory needs, and the right support can make a meaningful difference in their development. Save this post for helpful sensory ideas for parents and caregivers. 🌈

Startup update time!!

I’ve been working on my business, Sensory Support Solutions, where I create sensory tools for people with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing challenges. Here’s my progress so far:

What is working? The idea is working really well. When I share it with others, they understand the need right away. People especially like the idea of customizable sensory kits because everyone has different needs. I also started planning specific products like weighted lap pads and simple fidget tools, and that’s helping me make the idea feel more real.

What is not working? Pricing is one of the hardest parts right now. I want my products to be affordable for families, but I also need to cover the cost of materials and still make a profit. It’s also been challenging to design products that are safe, durable, and comfortable at the same time. I’m still figuring out the best materials to use.

How do I feel the project is coming? I feel like the project is coming along well, even though it’s still in the early stages. I’ve moved from just having an idea to actually planning real products and thinking about how to sell them. Sometimes it feels a bit overwhelming, but I’m proud of the progress I’ve made so far.

What am I learning about running a business? I’m learning that running a business takes a lot more planning than I expected. It’s not just about having a good idea—you also need to think about costs, customers, and how to improve your product. I’m also learning that feedback is really important because it helps me understand what people actually want and need.

What am I learning about myself? I’ve learned that I’m patient and really passionate about helping others, especially people who need sensory support. I’m also learning that I need to stay organized and trust my decisions more. This project is helping me become more confident and responsible.

Next Steps My next step is to research better materials and create a simple prototype of a sensory kit so I can test it and get more feedback.

As part of my assignment, I created an ideal customer persona for my small business, Sensory Support Solutions. This persona helps me understand the needs, goals, and challenges of the people I want to serve, so I can design products that truly make daily life easier and more enjoyable for individuals with sensory needs.

Who they are: Parents, caregivers, teachers, and therapists supporting children, teens, or adults with autism, ADHD, or sensory processing challenges.

Empathetic, proactive, and often balancing work, caregiving, and family responsibilities.

Background: They have experience with sensory tools but often struggle to find products that are safe, effective, and affordable. Many have tried multiple solutions that didn’t meet their expectations, leaving them frustrated and searching for tools that truly support focus, calmness, and comfort. They value businesses that understand sensory needs and provide thoughtful, high-quality options.
