BrainWorks
BrainWorks is a customizable and user-friendly tool designed to help parents, therapists, and educators create sensory diets, visual schedules, and reflex integration programs that engage children and teens:
For Therapists: Streamline the process of creating sensory diets with BrainWorks’ simple and organized system, eliminating the need for handwritten plans. Easily identify calming or alerting activities using clear icons, ensuring children participate actively in their sensory routines.
For Educators: Access comprehensive resources, including sensory symptom checklists, to quickly assess and understand each child’s sensory needs. BrainWorks builds confidence by providing tools and guidance to create effective sensory strategies for the classroom or school environment.
For Parents: BrainWorks empowers kids with fun and interactive picture cards, making it easy for them to choose activities based on their sensory needs. Parents can select templates tailored to their child’s age, environment (home or school), and specific sensory modulation disorder, helping kids manage their nervous systems and self-regulate effectively.

Yes! Our goal is to make sensory diets easy to understand by providing additional information on top of our activity cards. We also have a free 1-hour webinar sharing the ins and outs of our BrainWorks program, presented by Gwen Wild, MOT, OTR/L.
We offer two separate printed kit options. One for parents / teachers and one for therapists who have multiple children in need of sensory diets / visual tools. The single kit includes materials to make one folder, whereas the therapist kit includes 10 folders.
That’s exactly why we created BrainWorks Your Way! Each card has a BWYW option available with a black border and no colored arrows on it. The goal with BrainWorks Your Way is to offer a solution to those already familiar with other emotional or sensory regulation programs.
You can use a blank card and draw / write the information needed on it. We also take requests for customs cards, however we do ask for your patience to add them to our software. You can email requests to: rachel@sensationalbrain.com
