Sensory Processing Disorder, or SPD, is like a party in the brain where the music is a bit too loud, the lights are a bit too bright, and the snacks are a bit too crunchy! For children with SPD, the world can feel overwhelming, as they struggle to make sense of the sensory information they receive from their environment. Imagine trying to enjoy a day at the park, but instead of the sweet smell of flowers and the sounds of laughter, all you hear is a cacophony of noises and feel textures that make you want to retreat. It’s not just being picky; it’s a genuine challenge that can affect how they interact with their surroundings and the people in them.
