Toys

Hi can anyone recommend some good toys for 7 year old autistic boy he is sensitive to noise. I want something to distract when having melt down to help him relax. Any ideas appreciated

  • Just wondering, if you haven't already, can you buy ear defenders if he's sensitive to noise. They are great to block out any background noise, especially going through meltdowns. My daughter has a box of fidget stuff to turn to, but she's 15. You could buy him toys related to his favourite things and interest and distract him with that. Don't know if these will work but it's from my past experience. I get all my things from Amazon so maybe take a look on there, if you don't already. Good luck
