Thinking Putty for Sarah to regulate her emotions

Posted May 2, 2024
Sarah, a sweet but easily flustered sixteen-year-old in care, has a developmental delay that can make managing emotions tricky. She's found a helpful companion in Thinking Putty, a squishy toy that she can mold and stretch whenever she feels overwhelmed. This calming tool helps Sarah focus and self-regulate, allowing her to navigate challenging situations. Being able to design her own Thinking Putty and utilize it when needed will be beneficial to Sarah's continued self-regulation.

Sarah is 16 years old and lives in CA

Despite the challenges that come with her developmental delays, Sarah finds joy in the simple things. She spends hours meticulously coloring intricate patterns, her focus laser-sharp, as she brings her world to life on paper. The park is another haven, where the open space allows her to forget life's complications. Most of all, Sarah cherishes the time she gets with her aunt in the small foster home they currently share. Though life hasn't been easy for Sarah, these moments of connection and creativity bring a spark of happiness to her days.
