Designing Calm: Tools and Spaces to Help Kids Thrive

One weekend at our toddler-mom gymnastics class, we were waiting for trampoline time.

My 3-year-old daughter tugged on my sleeve as the coach prepared the equipment.

With those big, curious eyes, she made an unexpected observation:

"Mom, the lights are buzzing!"

I was confused, amazed, and speechless 😯

Indeed, a light was making a faint noise high up in the big gym, but no one else seemed to notice...

Her ability to notice such unique details reminded me just how differently our kids experience the world:

• I realized that we all perceive our surroundings in unique ways,

• that small details in a space can have a big impact on the experiences of both Neurotypical and Neurodivergent children,

• and that play and movement are essential tools for learning and connecting with our kids.

I’m so glad to have you here!
