This Printable Sensory Path includes a complete set of feet, hands, arrows, movement cues, breath prompts, strength visuals, and regulation tools to guide children through calming, energizing, and grounding movements throughout the day.

Designed by an ECE, CYW, and Early Childhood Studies graduate, this resource blends movement science, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation into a clean, low‑stim visual format that supports all learners — especially neurodivergent children who benefit from predictable, accessible cues.

Use this sensory path to support:

• transitions

• hallway movement

• classroom regulation

• motor skill development

• proprioceptive input

• emotional reset moments

WHAT’S INCLUDED

• Movement Cues — crawl, hop, tip‑toe, stomp, spin, heavy feet, jump, pull, push, backwards, under, animal walks

• Regulation Cues — Pause 1‑2‑3, 3 Deep Breaths, Freeze, Melt, Yes/No, What Way

• Start/Stop Markers — START, STOP, GO

• Sticky Gum Sequence — Sticky GUM 1–5 + UNSTUCK

• Strength & Proprioception — Squat Hold, Reach Tall, Heavy Feet, Push, Pull

• Bonus Cues — Splash, Spill Look Out, Tummy Side

• Instruction Pages — Using This Tool, Tips for Use, Tips for Success, Why It Works

SKILLS SUPPORTED

• Balance

• Coordination

• Motor Planning

• Proprioception

HOW TO USE

• Place cues along hallways, classrooms, or therapy spaces

• Invite children to follow each visual at their own pace

• Follow sequences like Sticky GUM 1–5 + UNSTUCK

• Mix movement + breath to support nervous system regulation

TIPS FOR SUCCESS

• Start simple with a few cues at a time

• Model movements to build confidence

• Use clear language for transitions

• Offer choices to support autonomy

• Repeat sequences to build motor planning

• Adapt for space — small rooms or full hallways

WHY IT WORKS

• Movement activates the brain

• Proprioception calms the body

• Breath resets the system

• Clear visuals reduce overwhelm

• Sequencing builds regulation

• Choice supports autonomy
