Deep Pressure & Comfort

Deep Pressure & Comfort: 8 Sensory Calming Cards

Help your child find calm when big feelings take over. Each card shows a simple deep pressure activity your child can see, copy and choose for themselves.

Jack and Ava show your child how to:

• Slow rocking
• Turtle shell pose
• Pillow sandwich
• Big hug
• Shoulder squeeze
• Hand squeeze
• Body sock
• Weighted blanket

Why it helps

Many children who learn differently find firm, steady pressure calming. When your child can point to a card and choose what helps, they start to understand their own body and feelings, and calm comes quicker.

What you get

• 8 illustrated activity cards, each with one simple instruction
• A short guide for grown-ups on how to use them
• A4 printable PDF, two cards per page with cut guides
• Print, cut and laminate for everyday use

Perfect for

Home, nursery, school and childminders. Great for children with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences or anyone who needs help settling.

Please supervise your child during all activities. Check with your child's occupational therapist before using a weighted blanket or body sock.

Instant download. For use with your own family or a single classroom.
