Fibre Optics

Encourages climbing which can be excellent for motor planning skills.

To provide visual stimulation and facilitate safe access to light, including amongst visually-impaired users and those with PMLD – the fibres can be safely held

The soothing weight of a harness across the lap or stroking the tips across the hands, arms etc. like a brush. Some are tectured.

To calm, soothe and encourage relaxation – through softly changing colours and by providing a distraction from anxieties and discomfort

To allow choice and control and so empower users through use with a variety of controllers. Individual strands can be used or whole harness, again facilitating choice and a person-centred approach

For learning opportunities e.g. colour recognition as well as colour matching and understand cause/effect when used with controllers

To encourage motor skills and exploration – strands can be fanned out, threaded through loosely-knitted items, draped over the body, wrapped around the body and fingers can be passed through the tails

      Interactive Mats

      Our interactive carpet mats are both visually stimulating and ideal for encouraging movement – walking, crawling and reaching.

      When pressure is applied to the mat, the light comes on.  Step off the mat and the light goes out. This interaction gives control to the user, providing a visual reward and a feeling of empowerment.

      This also encourages an understanding of cause and effect – realsiing that an action (stepping on the mat) causes a reaction (the lights to come on).

      The interactive aspect of this product also encourages motor skills (movement) – the mat is motivating and stimulating.

      The mat is large enough for several users to enjoy at once, which could be used to foster social skills, such as turn-taking.

        Size: 2m x 1m
