Videos in connection with our sensory playlist that will become a channel that will become a network under sensorylabs.org - so if you know or love or have videos about sensory rooms, fidgets, sensory integration, sensory gyms, products, hauls on products, manufacturers, DIY projects, education, advocacy, etc- now is the time to get involved! Email Gail and you can become a part of what will be an enormous video network within an even larger multi media network connecting patient/caregivers- providers/professionals- designers/manufacturers so we can have easier lives via better designed spaces, products and experiences. Living Labs, the parent organization, is under the name of it's concept, that we can co-colaborate and try new solutions in real life working examples to provide immediate feedback and lasting research of value. It is the way of creating products, designing spaces, creating an experience from the moment you leave the home until you are done at a store, show or museum- it is our way of beliveing that every voice has value. So here we have sensorylabs.org and the sensory videos that will be a channel, and elsewhere we will show sensory and how it helps with another ability/disability at abiliyliving.org.
Videos within the sensory room show examples of sensory rooms in homes, hospitals, mental health centers, rehabilitation clinics, schools, and nursing homes. To help for: autism, ADHD, Alzheimer's, pain management, memory loss, special needs children and more.

Here is a video of how I designed and built a sensory room for people with autism, learning difficulties and mental health issues. If anyone would like any advice feel free to contact me. I'm not a professional designer i'm just passionate about being a support worker and wanted to help by creating a sensory space which can help with sensory integration, fine motor skills, hyper and hypo sensitivities through sensory stimuli, reduce challenging behaviour and provide a relaxing area for people to use.

Sensa-Calm is also listed in our highly curated, comparitive weighted blanket list , so we have more detailed information:
Sensa-Calm started by a grandmother of a child with Autism. She has now built the company into giving work to many contracted seamstresses around Chattanooga, TN. Each blanket is made to order from hundreds of fabrics and blessed and cared for with the thoughts of the recipient in mind.
Using the comparison size of** 38" x 60" and 10 lbs of fill, the base price is $170 And note that each handmade blanket takes **10-14 days to construct before being shipped.
Extras include
All of the hundreds of blanket materials and colors are the same price. Categories of material include:
Unlike the typical vinyl institutional weighted blankets, Sensa-Calm makes a gorgeous waterproof weighted blanket *that's equally great news hospitals, clinics, and schools as it is for users who have issues with incontinence, spilling, gripping, or just being a bit clutzy with liquids in bed. *The Eco Friendly PUL fabric doesn’t absorb liquid, you can wipe it off with a wet cloth, you can toss it in the wash and wash it in hot water in a commercial or home laundry, it resists abrasion, it’s fire retardant, and antimicrobial. All that combined gives you exactly what you would expect from a waterproof weighted blanket! The most important characteristic of EcoPULTM is that it forms a waterproof barrier, while still being** breathable**. In this context, breathable does not mean that you can hold the fabric over your face and breathe through it. It means that the fabric releases heat and water vapor. This keeps the wearer comfortable. Our PUL fabric has a soft hand, making it quiet never stiff or crackly.
Another good news option though is that if you already have a weighted blanket, you can get a** duvet cover that's waterproof for an adult bed for $130.**
How they are constructed
Uniquely available: Weighted Wraps
The perfect size to wrap around your shoulders or put around your neck like a scarf. A weighted wrap can be doubled and put on the lap as a lap pad. It also makes a perfect size lap blanket when laid across the lap. A wrap does not need to weigh as much as a blanket because the weight is concentrated into a smaller area. Because of size limitations, they do not contain polyfill, only poly-pellets. The smaller size makes it the perfect portable item for in the car, doctors appointments, school, etc. Everyone LOVES this item. Weighted wraps are popular with kids and the elderly. They can even be used as a stroller/car seat blanket for the very little ones.
Dimensions are (12” x 36”) for a 3lb Wrap for $39.95 and (18” x 36”) for a 5lb Wrap for 49.95 (add $20 to get in the eco-friendly waterproof materials)
A weighted lap pad is a portable size for school, the car, or even work. A lap pad helps soothe anxiety and the wiggles. Our lap pads are approximately 12″ x 18″ and weigh 2lbs for $29.95 in any material and $49.95 in the waterproof.
