Sensory TheraPLAY Box

Sensory TheraPLAY Box is a monthly box of sensory toys and tools curated by Christina, a licensed pediatric occupational therapist. It is designed with neurodivergent kids in mind, including those with autism, ADHD and sensory processing needs, but the seller notes that kids of all neurotypes enjoy it. The contents aim to be calming and to help children manage anxiety, and fidgets can also help with focus during tasks like listening in class or reading. Typical items include putty, aromatherapy dough, hand fidgets, textured and tactile toys, resistive toys that build hand strength and fine-motor skills, softly glowing light-up toys and scented products. Each box comes with a description sheet explaining the items. Past boxes listed on Cratejoy include a back-to-school box built around a weighted lap pad, along with smaller fidgets, and an October box with a s'mores fidget set, a scented pencil, air dough, a stretchy monster and a liquid timer. The box is aimed at children ages 5 to 9. Boxes ship in the first week of each month with USPS tracking. It is a thoughtful option for parents, grandparents or teachers looking for therapeutic play tools without having to research each product themselves, and it also works well as a gift.
