🏋️Sensory Circuits🥰

While standard movement breaks are often just a quick walk or stretch to "burn off energy," sensory circuits follow a clinical, three-part sequence designed by occupational therapists to physically organize a child's brain and body for learning and regulation - alerting, organising and calming.

SECOND CHANCE SUNDAY

WHAT ARE SENSORY CIRCUITS?

Sensory circuits are short, structured sequences of movement designed to help a child’s nervous system find that 'just right' level of alertness for learning, play and daily routines. They gently support the brain and body to organise sensory input, regulate emotions and improve focus.

They can be especially supportive for children who struggle with transitions, children who feel anxious about school as they start their day, neurodivergent children, and those experiencing after-school restraint collapse when the day’s demands finally catch up with them.

A sensory circuit follows a clear pattern: alerting activities to wake up the body and brain, organising activities to build focus and coordination, and calming activities to help the child feel settled and ready. The order matters. When done in sequence, sensory circuits can support regulation rather than overwhelm.

They’re flexible, quick and practical. A circuit can take as little as 10–15 minutes and can be delivered at home or at school. First thing in the morning, after lunch, before homework, or as part of an emotional regulation routine, sensory circuits fit around real life.

They’re not about pushing children. They’re about meeting sensory needs, building predictability, and helping children feel safe and supported in their bodies.

Our Sensory Circuits Resource Pack includes clear explanations, visual prompts and ready-to-use activities to help adults feel confident running sensory circuits with children and young people.

Yesterday was the last of the health week school visits, at Kingsland Primary. It was lovely to meet more children over 5 classes who engaged well with the BREATHE approach.

We learned about the importance of relaxation for our mental health and how breathing, relaxing and exercise can help calm big emotions. Hopefully they all felt calm and relaxed and will take what they learned back to their classrooms, and home with them too 🥰

🥰Child feedback🥰
This type of feedback is so important to me. Not only is it lovely to see their kind words but also to know the sessions are helping someone, even if it’s in a small way. This child had a block of 1:1 sessions with the aim to build her self esteem, help her tackle worries and very importantly help with getting to sleep. We have worked on all of this and it has been amazing to see her confidence grow in such a short time, and sleeping is already starting to get a little better 🤞😴

🍃1:1 sessions are planned around your child’s needs, with your input, to be personal to them. If this is something you can see helping your child please get in touch for a chat, no obligation to book, but we can see if there’s a plan to suit.

Self regulation, worries, anxiety, self esteem, sleep, resilience, making mistakes/perfectionism, anger management, social skills…..

DM or email 🥰

🍃1:1 session discussing making mistakes, and ways to help calm our meerkat to feel relaxed.

We made a lava lamp sensory bottle as well as a squishy, both useful if we feel stressed or worried to help us relax 🧘

If you’re child might benefit from some 1:1 sessions get in touch!

During this session we spoke about worries and different strategies we can use to help when we are worried. We made dream, or worry catchers to hopefully help us forget our worries so we can sleep better 🛌💭
