There are a variety of items that could enhance the sensory experience depending on the
clients’ needs. For example, why not combine with other types of sensory input – e.g.
create games to “collect” balls from around a room which will encourage the individual to
utilise a variety of different skills (e.g. object recognition, hand/eye co-
ordination/problem solving etc. Enhance visual input by using light up balls, textured
ones, ones that have audible input or perhaps have olfactory value see
