Visual Sensory Tools & Activities

The visual sensory system processes what we see — colors, patterns, lights, and movement. For individuals with sensory processing differences, visual input can be stimulating, calming, or overwhelming depending on the environment. The right visual sensory tools can create a soothing atmosphere, improve focus, and encourage exploration.

From gentle glow lights to high-contrast visual games, these tools help meet sensory needs for both sensory seekers (who crave bright, moving visuals) and sensory avoiders (who benefit from softer, more predictable light and patterns).
