Signs & Symptoms of
Sensory Processing Disorder
Recognising these signs early can make a significant difference. If your child shows several of these, seek a professional evaluation promptly.
Extreme sensitivity to textures or clothing
Distress over seams in socks, tags in shirts, or specific food textures — not "fussiness" but genuine sensory discomfort.
Overreaction to sounds or lights
Covering ears at ordinary noise levels, distress in busy environments, or avoiding bright light.
Sensory seeking behaviour
Constantly moving, crashing, jumping, spinning, or seeking deep pressure — the child who never stops.
Poor body awareness
Bumping into things, misjudging space, difficulty with balance, or not knowing how hard they are touching.
Emotional meltdowns in sensory environments
Disproportionate emotional reactions in crowded, noisy, or unfamiliar sensory environments.
Feeding difficulties due to sensory aversion
Extreme food selectivity based on texture, smell, or appearance rather than taste.
