Jazzlyne, 9 years old

Wish submitted by:

Jazzlyne is an amazing sweet little girl living with her sister Vintage in a foster home. Jazzlyne is full of energy and loves making friends. Her current interests are soccer and arts and crafts. Jazzlyne wants to be a lifeguard when she grows up so that she can help people. Jazzlyne is very polite and kind to everyone she interacts with. She has been displaying some behaviors due to some traumatic events in her past. Some of these behaviors look like physical aggression towards others. She is adored in the home that she is currently in, and the team is working hard to preserve this placement while also keeping this child and others around her safe.

Proprioceptive input is very important in a child's development. This system also has an important regulatory role in sensory processing which can assist in controlling responses to sensory stimuli. Jazzlyne's foster parents are hoping this punching bag will fulfill Jazzlyne's sensory needs rather than taking it out on others.
