Sensory Pathway Decals
Why We Love It
Take a Walk in a Sensory Hallway!
Hop, skip, jump - and boost focus too! Stick these colorful and vibrant Sensory Pathway Decals on the floor and walls and create your very own sensory path. Each set of decals offers a unique hybrid of calming and alerting movements and actions to help increase alertness, or calm a heightened sensory system. Take a whole-class sensory walk before class or during transitions as part of our ActiveMind program.
- Skill-building activities that can easily be incorporated into OT and PT sessions
- Supports the challenges of sensory processing disorder and ADHD
- Made by Fun and Function
- All ages
Ideas for Use
- Install in the hallway for smooth transitions that promote movement and positive peer interactions
- Time for a quick sensory break? Push the handprints on the wall as a heavy work activity or spin around the sun to release energy
- Call out the name of a planet on the Solar Systems decals and have kids take turns following the movement-based commands
Helps With
Getting Started
Preparations:
• If your decals arrive folded or rolled up, unfold or unroll them and allow to flatten for 24 hours
• Choose smooth areas of the floors and walls (without chips, cracks or bumps) to place the decals
• Clean the floors and walls using a cleaner with degreaser. Wipe dry with a lint-free cloth
Installing the Decals:
• Create a layout on paper where the decals are to be placed. Once satisfied with the placement, use painter's tape to temporarily attach each decal to the floors or walls
• Make sure the decals are not placed over grout lines or gaps between tiles
• Peel a small section of the backing away from the decal. Carefully place this section of the decal to the floor or wall
• Slowly peel the rest of the backing away. As you pull the backing away, use a squeegee tool to flatten the decal into place
• After the decal is placed, firmly but gently use the squeegee to smooth the decal's surface to remove air bubbles
• Allow the decals to settle for 24 hours before students use your Sensory Pathway
