My Senses Are Like Cups: What to Do When Everything Feels Too Much or Not Nearly Enough

By James Galpin and Clare Ward

Book Overview

Think about our senses being like cups and everything we see, hear, feel, smell, touch, and taste as we move about is like water going into our cups.

Some of our cups might be big and some might be small. Whether big or small, we like it best when our cup is filled enough so that it's just right for us We are all different. We need just the right amount of information to feel good

Help your child aged 7+ think about, explore and develop ways to manage sensory overload and feeling under stimulated with quirky cartoons that visually illustrate the approach. Sections on each of the eight senses (including your internal 'body signals' like hunger) feature noticing and knowledge-building activities to help kids get their own, unique, senses cups feeling 'just right' for them.
