A parent has created a whole sensory playroom designed specifically to suit the needs of his son with ADHD featuring a climbing wall, swings and a trampoline. Dr Bradley Hall, 35, built the room himself and set up all the equipment for less than £850.
Now his son, who he has asked not to be named, can enjoy a room that specifically stimulates his needs in different ways than children without ADHD. Bradley, a plastic surgeon, said: "We modelled our playroom after the gyms found in occupational therapy offices, which seemed to really allow him to get sensory and proprioceptive input (stimulation for joints and muscles), burn energy, and have fun."
The items in the room cost £790 ($955) and only took around two hours to set up in total. The room also contains wooden playset, a gymnastics bar and climbing rope.
