2. Bite chain Chewigem miller heart

Looking for a Sinterklaas or Christmas gift for a nail biter or pencil chewer? Then the Miller Heart
bite chain from Chewigem
is a must. This heart-shaped pendant is super beautiful for girls and ladies! Not only does the heart feel pleasant to chew on, the heart-shaped pendant is also somewhat flexible so that you can fidget with your hands. These heart design chewing jewelry are suitable for average chewing needs. It is a popular chewing jewelry for girls. And that is not surprising, it is a trendy design and does not look like a chewing chain at all.

3. Narrations

Do you want an educational gift or a Sinterklaas gift that stimulates your daughter’s imagination and creativity? Then you should definitely stock up on the
Story Cubes Fantasia
. These are story dice with icons of objects on them. You play dice with the 9 stones and then come up with a story in which the depicted objects appear. The dice give you countless combinations to create stories. Encourages imagination, creativity, flexibility. Play alone, with friends, adults, young people and even with young children. At school, at therapy, at home or on holiday. A lot of fun guaranteed!

Think for yourself how you like to play the game! For example, divide the 9 rolled dice into groups of 3 and use them for the beginning, middle and end of your story. Or let a player start telling and ask the fellow players to finish the story further on the basis of the following dice. Or write down your story, or draw it. Use all the dice or a few. Do you start your story with ‘Once upon a time…’, or with ‘In the distant distant future…’ Or give a story a different atmosphere by giving a different opening sentence such as: ‘It was a dark and stormy night…’ ‘When animals could talk…’ ‘It was cold, very cold…’ Everything is possible! Use your imagination both in coming up with the stories and in coming up with the rules of the game.

4th Tuban Foam

Tubi Creative Foam turns your daily bath into an exciting adventure.
This foam that you can model moisturizes the skin and has soothing properties.
The colorful and pleasant-feeling texture challenges your child to creative and sensory play. Do not only use Tubi Foam in the bath, but offer it in a plastic container or tuff tray as Messy play and let children play with this foam. It is actually a bit like Crazy Foam.

5. Hairy hugger (weighted hug)

Sinterklaas or Christmas is also a time par excellence to give your sensitive daughter a tool as a gift, which just looks like a great big hug! This
weighting cuddly toy Hairy
gives deep pressure through its 2.3 kilos. With this he helps your child to de-stimulate during the day, reducing anxiety and stress feelings. The weighting cuddly toy quickly becomes your child’s best buddy, use it at home, at school and on the road and prevent overstimulation.

The weighting hugs help children regulate themselves through deep pressure. This can be during situations that cause anxiety or tension. The safe and warm feeling we all know when you are cuddled is simulated by Hairy Hugger. The heaviest hug quickly becomes your son’s or daughter’s best buddy and can go anywhere to help de-stimulate. [De Hairy Hugger kun je als preorder bestellen voor kerst]

Do you already know the
sensory worm
and

6. Senseez cow

The senseez vibrating cushions give a soft vibrating feeling when pressed or when sitting on them. The senseez touchables are vibrating cushions with a soft cover. They give a soft vibrating sensation when pressed or when sitting on them.

But did you know that these vibrating pillows from Senseez can also help children who have difficulty sitting still while eating, doing homework or working in class or watching television? A senseez pillow helps to calm, relax and unwind the body. They are therefore the ideal wobbly pillow to fall asleep with or to relax on the couch. And what child doesn’t want to have such a cheerful senseez vibrating pillow with him?

But above all, these Senseez cushions are great for ‘special’ children. Think of children with autism, ADHD, or a stimulus processing problem. The vibrating cushions can offer these children more sensory tactile stimuli to activate themselves and thus increase alertness. Which benefits the concentration. But also those who are hypersensitive to stimuli can calm themselves better due to the vibrating effect.

In use, you can compare these vibrating cushions with the well-known wobble cushions. For optimal effect, use the pillow a few times a day, for 25 minutes. Longer use ensures that the child gets used to the stimuli and the pillow loses its effect. So bet more often on the day short than once much too long. You can also fidget with the tentacles of this octopus from senseez! A very nice gift for the holidays so that your child can also sit at the table longer during Christmas dinner 😉

7th Happy cube

For educational, brain-challenging games you can also contact Educadora. My Sinterklaas gift tip is the
Happy Cube Original
. This is ideal for the average puzzler of any age! Each puzzle model has its own shape and color, and you can form a 4 cm cube.

First, puzzle a cube with the six pieces and place them back in their frame. Then combine the cubes to build magnificent structures. To make it even more fun, each puzzle refers to a metropolis. For example, the yellow puzzle has been given the name Tokyo, where a real puzzle tradition prevails. If the original is too easy, switch to the Happy cube pro or the expert edition!

8. Loose parts game material

To let your child discover and use her imagination, I can recommend the loose parts play materials. A nice basic set is the Wooden Treasures Starter set , but also the fun sets of Yellow Door that consist of nice vegetable stones, bread stones let your child enjoy imaginative play.

9. Sensory Star

Petit boum is a great brand, they have specialized in sensory bottles. But now they have a very special new product in their range and that is this glow in the dark
Sensory Star
. The shimmering liquid is magical for children to look at and will certainly fascinate children with autism. But be sure to check out the rest of their collection of magical
sensory bottles

10. Be the sloth

Are you looking for a very nice weighted cuddly toy, soft, washable and a high cuddliness content? Then Bent is the must. It is available in 3 different sizes and can be used for young children, adolescents and adults with stimulus processing problems. Oliz’s sloth provides rest due to the pressure of its weight on the body. Place the weighting hug Bent on the lap and then place the arms over the shoulders. This causes the sloth to lean against the front of the child and on shoulders. An arm has a wide elastic bracelet with which you hold the arms together and you hold the cuddly toy more easily. Or put the weighted sloth on your body at bedtime. Weighting is effective in children with sleep problems. It helps to calm down and sleep better.
