This Play Tent Swing is not just a play equipment; it’s a versatile tool that aids in the sensory integration therapy often recommended for children with autism and sensory processing disorders. Its gentle swinging motion provides vestibular stimulation, which is essential for sensory processing, while the enclosed tent offers a safe haven for children to retreat to when they feel overwhelmed.”
