Handmade support item ideas to help children with developmental disabilities feel calm

Children with developmental disabilities each have their own unique personalities.

For example, some may have difficulty staying focused, or be sensitive to sensory input.

Here, we introduce ideas for materials and toys that are actually used in therapeutic settings.

Many are cute in appearance and pique children’s interest.

Please enjoy the process of making them while using these handmade support items to spend fun time with the children.

Give making fun, homemade toys a try to support your child’s growth!

The “number case” has several important goals for children’s development.

First, it helps them understand the concept of numbers.

By seeing and touching numbers, they also develop the ability to understand with their eyes.

In addition, playing with numbers increases their concentration and fine motor skills, allowing them to feel a sense of achievement from doing things on their own.

In this way, a number case not only teaches numbers but also supports children’s emotional and physical growth.

Try making a DIY “number case” tailored to your child’s developmental stage and enjoy it together.

Puzzles are fun for children—and not just fun, they’re also educational toys.

Using their hands to assemble puzzles helps develop fine motor skills.

They also build concentration and memory.

In particular, for children with developmental disabilities, puzzles can help regulate sensory input and enhance communication skills.

You can make them from everyday materials like milk cartons, so try crafting your own original puzzles with a bit of creativity.

Enjoy making and playing together with the kids!

In conclusion

We introduced support items that can be easily made from familiar materials and enjoyed by children with developmental disabilities.

Try making them by hand using simple items that suit your child’s age and developmental stage.

Use this as a reference, and play together with colors and designs that spark your child’s interest so they can have fun playing!
