Hi Anna, Just in case you are not aware of it here is the link for Tina Champagne's excellent site which has a wealth of info on sensory modalities http://www.ot-innovations.com. Don't be put off by not seeing peds in the headings. Just take a cruise around. There is lots of help with finding or creating materials with an eye to the budget. Incidentally Tina is presenting at our upcoming Cognitive Symposium in Boston, Nov 7&8 with a workshop on Nov 6. www.Allen-cognitive-network.org Joan Riches B.Sc.O.T.

Sensory rooms can get VERY expensive. Think about the general sensory issues that you are trying to address and work from there. Also, if it's a neuro clinic be careful about lighting and epilepsy. There's a great paediatric group on Yahoo http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/ot-peds/ that has a number of individuals with a wealth of experience in sensory integration. Good luck!

But I am interested in finding out if anyone has any experience designing a sensory room? I am in the process of designing one for a neurology clinic (mainly for pediatrics). Any resources/help is much appreciated!
