Bring the calm. Find the focus. Deliver the joy. Where do you start with creating practical sensory spaces in your service? What does wellbeing look like in your environment? What resources can help regulate children with varying needs throughout the day?

It’s not as overwhelming as it may seem. This guide walks you through how to set up intentional sensory spaces, from setting up your environment and choosing sensory tools, to supporting daily routines and more. Each section has a quick-scan key for outcomes, created with EYLF learning outcomes in mind, particularly Outcomes 1 and 3, which talk to children feeling safe, supported, healthy and confident to engage in learning and relationships. We’ve invited Sonja Walker, the founder of Kids First Children’s Services to share her incredible insights.

Together, let us help you curate a sensory-focused space that brings the calm, finds the focus and delivers the joy.

How to bring an intentional approach to sensory & wellbeing. By Sonja Walker, founder of Kids First Children’s Services As an educator, you want to support every learner to thrive. What’s clear is that every child is unique, so it’s important to move beyond a ‘one size fits all’ solution in your service. It means creating supportive, accessible environments that meet a range of specific physical, emotional and developmental needs. It’s all about being intentional with your choices.

Understanding the key moments Every day includes moments when children need extra support. Moments that require a tailored approach to sensory stimulation.

Settling into the day This is a time when focus and big energy can compete with big feelings.

Supporting overwhelm Children can become overwhelmed by noise, mess, movement, light or busy group spaces. They need support to feel calm and safe.

Navigating transitions These times can be tricky, as children move from one activity to another. It’s a time when the right approach can support in a specific way. The right approach used consistently can help them to manage more easily.

Sonja is the leader and founder of Kids First Children’s Services. As a qualified teacher of 30+ years, Sonja is dedicated to advocating for the needs of children and families in the community. Her multidisciplinary team brings together child psychologists, speech pathologists, occupational therapists and specialist early intervention teachers.

Recognising the cues Children often show us what they need, if we know what to look for. A child who becomes upset when outdoor play ends may need more time to process change, a clear visual cue or a task to perform to manage the demands of that moment. A child who refuses to pack away may feel overwhelmed, unsure where things go, or frustrated that play has been interrupted. A child struggling to join group time may need movement before sitting, a defined place to sit, something appropriate to hold, or a visual reminder of what will happen next.

Prices exclude GST


Sensory input needs can vary greatly What we know is that different children need different sensory input at different times.

Movement seekers

Calm seekers

Some children seek movement so they can feel organised enough to pay attention. They need to:

Others need to remove themselves from a stimulating environment to reset. They need to:

• • • • •

Bounce Move Jump Fidget Wriggle

• • • •

Retreat Observe Reduce stimulation Reset quietly

The goal is not to change the child. The goal is to create an environment where every child can participate successfully.

Most children are not being difficult when they wriggle, tip, stretch, fidget or leave the mat. Their bodies may be seeking movement or retreat so that they can feel balanced. A few practical ways to create an environment to meet these needs are: Use calm-down or reset spaces in a positive and inclusive way. Plan short movement breaks before seated learning. Help children participate in play, routines and relationships.

Tools that are more than toys Well-chosen sensory and wellbeing resources can help you meet children where they are and support your practice in the most meaningful way. So, when a child won’t come near the painting table or bolts from group time, our first question is not ‘how do we stop that?’. Instead, we ask what the child’s nervous system is doing, what the environment is asking of them, and what would make joining in feel possible for them. The resources in this guide are tools for exactly that – and they work best when matched to a specific child, watched closely, and adjusted as needed. Observe before you prescribe! A tool that calms one child can overwhelm another. Introduce one thing at a time, keep what works, and aim for the child to eventually reach for it themselves.

A Welcoming Environment

In early childhood settings, a thoughtful, inviting environment can make all the difference. Anticipating changing needs throughout the day is key to purposeful planning. Dedicated sensory and quiet spaces help children reset, regulate and return to play or focused learning.

Sensory Exploration

Sensory exploration helps children make sense of the world through touch, movement, sight, sound and natural materials. A fundamental part of this is sensory processing, the way the brain receives, organises and interprets information from the senses. These experiences are most effective when educators observe what each child is seeking or avoiding, then provide resources that support safe, meaningful participation.
