🍽️ Sensory Development: Mealtime
In collaboration with the North Carolina Early Learning Sensory Support Program

Mealtime invites children to explore through touch, smell, sound, and taste. Talking through each step, offering hands-on opportunities, and keeping routines predictable supports independence and understanding. These everyday moments teach children how their actions relate to what happens next.

Sensory Bins: More Than Just Play!
​Have you ever wondered why our clinic is often filled with bins of rice, water beads, or sand? To a child, it’s a treasure hunt. To our therapists, it’s a powerful tool for neurological development.
​Sensory bins are curated containers filled with various textures, colors, and hidden objects designed to stimulate the senses. But why are they a staple at CNS Clinic? 🧠. 🌟 The Benefits for Your Child:
​Brain Connectivity: Tactile exploration builds nerve pathways in the brain, improving the ability to complete complex learning tasks.
​Self-Regulation: For children with sensory sensitivities, these bins help calm an overstimulated nervous system or “wake up” an under-responsive one.
​Fine Motor Mastery: Scooping, pinching, and pouring strengthen the hand muscles needed for writing and dressing.
​Language & Cognition: Describing sensations (like “squishy” or “gritty”) expands vocabulary and encourages scientific thinking.
​🛍️ Take the Therapy Home!
​We know how much our patients love these bins, so we’ve made it easy to bring the benefits home. CNS Clinic now sells custom-made Sensory Bins!
​Each bin is professionally curated by our therapy team to ensure they are safe, engaging, and developmentally appropriate. They make perfect gifts and are a great way to support your child’s progress between sessions.
