Feel It

The stall titled 'Feel It' was based on offering sensory experiences to the children with cerebral palsy who may experience sensory issues such as hypersensitivity or hyposensitivity. The stall consisted of a huge backdrop with various tactile and visual stimuli, a ball pit for tactile, kinesthetic and proprioceptive stimulation, a specially constructed track at the entrance with different sensory stimuli, and various small tasks for visual stimulation.
