Everyday Games for Sensory Processing Disorder: 100 Playful Activities — Paperback

Some books earn their place on a caregiver's shelf by being genuinely useful on an ordinary Tuesday. Everyday Games for Sensory Processing Disorder by Barbara Sher, OTR — award-winning author and occupational therapist with over 45 years of experience working with children — is that kind of book. One hundred playful, sensory-aware activities, designed to be led by caregivers, parents, and educators using materials already found around the house. The activities are adaptable across abilities, ages, and environments, with modifications included for older children and varying developmental levels. No special equipment. No clinical setting required. Just play — purposeful, caregiver-guided, and made around the child in front of you.

We carry this at EOWD for families, caregivers, educators, and neurodivergent households where sensory-aware routines are part of daily life, and a practical, activity-based resource belongs within reach. The 100-activity format makes it a natural fit for home routines, homeschool enrichment, classroom support, therapy-adjacent play ideas, and caregiver resource shelves. It pairs well with foundational sensory processing titles — including The Out-of-Sync Child and Raising a Sensory Smart Child — as a hands-on companion that takes concepts from theory to practice.

This book supports caregiver-guided, sensory-aware play, screen-free activity, playful exploration, family connection, and everyday activity ideas for children, families, caregivers, educators, and neurodivergent households. It does not treat, diagnose, cure, or prevent sensory processing disorder or any other condition. It does not replace occupational therapy, medical advice, individualized education plans, or any professional support. Activities should be chosen based on the child's age, abilities, sensory preferences, comfort level, and caregiver judgment. Stop any activity that causes distress, discomfort, overstimulation, unsafe movement, or resistance. Individual responses to sensory activities vary.

Explore the 100-activity guide that makes caregiver-guided sensory play something to look forward to every day.
