Benefits for Children with SEN/SEND/ALN, Including Cerebral Palsy:
The TickiT Gem Cube Mirror Tray offers numerous benefits for children with Special Educational Needs (SEN), Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), and Additional Learning Needs (ALN), including those with cerebral palsy. The vibrant colours and reflective surfaces provide strong visual stimuli, which can enhance visual tracking and attention. Handling the smooth, tactile cubes helps develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, which are often areas of difficulty for these children. The mirrored tray adds an extra layer of sensory engagement, making it an excellent tool for sensory play and exploration. Additionally, the cubes can be used in therapeutic settings to encourage communication, social interaction, and collaborative play, providing a supportive and inclusive learning environment.
