A calm room is a dedicated space, open to anyone, for use to help them reset and calm their nervous system from the possible sensory overload from the crowds, music and food smells. By visiting this welcoming space for a few minutes, an individual can reset their sensory system through hands-on calming activities, allowing them to return to the expo instead of going home. Twenty-One Senses will have multiple sensory supports available within the calm space, such as alternative seating, play tents, playdoh, coloring books and fidgets. This space and activities allow kiddos and adults alike a reprieve to help reset. Twenty-One Senses will also have noise canceling headphones and ear plugs available to purchase or borrow for the event.
