My Sensory Toolbox
My Sensory Toolbox introduces young children to simple tools that can help with sensory regulation. Each section explores a different sensory tool and strategy with kid-friendly explanations and step-by-step guidance. Wide white space and a calm color palette were chosen deliberately, so the book itself is calming to hold and read.
There is also a "For Adults" section that helps caregivers understand when and how to use these supports effectively. Designed for early learners and the adults who care for them, this book makes sensory regulation easy, approachable, and practical.
Written and illustrated by two high schoolers, the author's own childhood experiences with sensory regulation shaped this story. The illustrations are hand-painted watercolors, created with care in a world increasingly filled with AI-generated images.
Practical. Calming. Created by teenagers who get it.
