String painting

While "Sissy" is at school we start our new year of activities for Mason!

This is our string painting with some neon colours.

I used small lengths of string mixed into some paint and plenty of butchers paper.

Mason is a child who prefers not to have messy hands so i am providing more experiences to allow him to feel comfortable with the sensation.

This is important for not only sensory awareness but can also relate to food. Some children will not eat foods that are messy and this can affect diet with refusal to eat certain food groups. Thankfully we aren't that far along but watching Mason in a messy environment showed me he was uneasy and i needed to address that for him.
