Children with sensory differences ... painting the world beautiful.
Sensory Processing Books for Kids
Jeanette Loftus
Parents ask me often where they can purchase children's books about Sensory Processing Disorder for their children and which books they should buy. I found over sixty sensory processing disorder books for children.
When I first learned about Sensory Processing Disorder thirteen years ago, there were only a few books for children about sensory processing disorder. It is so incredible to see so many new authors and sensory books for children who are struggling with with sensory differences.
I created this amazing list full of sensory processing disorder books for you to read to your children. I know how exhausting it is to be a sensory parent so I wanted it to be one less thing you have to think about or needed to do on your to-do list.
Reading to your children about sensory processing disorder is one of the great ways to explain to to your children why they feel the ways they do and are experiencing the things they are.
Sensory processing disorder books for children will help them feel less alone. They will see that other children also have sensory differences too. Reading books to children with sensory processing disorder can be a a really good way to teach them about their sensory differences and help them understand their symptoms and find new ways to cope. It is a great time to connect with your child too.
Children who are struggling with sensory processing disorder may not know that they have a sensory differences or why they feel overwhelmed in different environments. I remember growing up and not understanding why I was feeling different than my siblings or my friends. I thought I was the only person like this. I think having books to read to children now to explain this is so beneficial. It will definitely boost their self esteem to know and understand themselves better.
Reading books to our children give them an understanding about sensory processing disorder and can help them understand themselves better. There is absolutely nothing better than finding out why you do the things you do and feel the ways you do. In that moment it all starts to make total sense to you. Having an understanding about yourself feels really good. When you are not sure about sensory processing disorder it can be a confusing time because you don't understand yourself.
Reading books about SPD to our children can also help them see that they are not alone and that there are other children who are experiencing the same sensory experiences as they are, reading books to our children who have sensory processing disorder is a great way to teach them about their sensory differences and provide them with some extra tools.
Sensory books can help a child understand that they are not alone. If you have a child with Sensory processing disorder, consider reading book and including books in their routines.
If you have sensory processing disorder books for children or parents that you are no longer using, please consider donating them to your local library because not everyone has access to purchasing books and they can be a great way to spread awareness and have acceptance and inclusion in our communities. Here are some ideas!
Supporting, learning, sharing and growing together.

If you are concerned for your child, please always seek medical attention through a family doctor, pediatrician or therapist. This website is for awareness and support purposes only. Each child is different and what works for one child may not for another because all children have different sensory needs. Please always consult with a professional.
