👀 How to Spot Sensory Sensitivities in Your Toddler:
Watch for these signs during daily routines:
Touch: Pulling at clothes, avoiding messy play, or needing to touch
everything
Sound: Covering ears, reacting strongly to loud noises, or not
noticing their name being called
Smell/Taste: Gagging at certain smells or refusing certain textures
Movement: Constantly climbing/spinning or fearful of stairs,
swings, or sudden motion
Light/Sight: Squinting in bright light or fascinated by
flickering/flashing visuals
💡 Tip: Keep a simple journal of when and where tricky behaviors
happen — patterns will help you identify the underlying sensory
cause.
