James, 4 years old, IN

Wish submitted by:

James is a spirited and energetic boy who feels happiest when he is outdoors. He has a fascination for helping others and a love of nature, which leads him to enjoy spending time in the yard, mimicking the adults as they work. Since entering foster care in 2023, James has found comfort in staying busy and being part of a team, whether it's helping with small tasks or exploring new skills. His enthusiasm for hands-on activities, combined with his boundless energy, turns every task into an exciting adventure, showcasing his big heart and lively personality.

James is hoping to get a sensory compression tunnel to help him feel secure and calm when his big feelings start to feel overwhelming. After everything he's been through, he often carries stress that he can't quite put into words. This tunnel would give him a gentle hug all around as he crawls through, providing the deep pressure he needs to help his nervous system settle down. It would be a little retreat for him to reset, take a breather, and then come back out ready to explore and express himself, just the way he loves to do.
