We believe every neurodivergent person deserves tools built with care. We pledge to share all our prototypes for free. Whether you can afford our tools or not, your voice matters.

Together, we’re building a future where neurodivergent people thrive.
For #neurodivergent children, many tasks can be painful or annoying.

The solution? Pick a skill + special interest = growth!

My son's special interest is animals, and he needed to work on his hand strength, so our solution was Play-Doh dioramas!

Learning in their way, at their pace. #parenting

Whale Breaths is a daily lifesaver. My children went from distressing meltdowns to telling themselves, "I feel blue. I want Whale Breaths"

This is our goal for every child using our support deck.

Our video breaks down and demonstrates what Whale Breaths is all about! #parenting #autism #resource

Cooking while autistic can be hard, and the judgment is even harder. I almost gave up on cooking entirely after too many knife accidents, but then I realized: I don't have to do it like everyone else.

Cut-resistant gloves and pre-cut veggies saved my independence.

What kitchen hack helps you?

Working on speech doesn't have to be difficult, in fact it can be as easy as watching a movie with your kid! We made "Pronoun Signs" that your little one can lift to describe characters on the screen. Here's one of our little ones watching her favorite TV show while practicing pronouns. #ByUsForUs

When my kids are in a good mood, that’s when we practice "bouncing back." Flamingo Balance is our favorite—simple, fun, and perfect for reframing "losing" as a chance to "try again." We do it anywhere you can stand. Can’t wait to hear how long your kids can Flamingo Balance~

From the workplace to public spaces to home, meltdowns impacted every aspect of my life. Learning about Meltdown Planning saved me. The method was simple; just like how we have fire escape plans, I needed a plan to know what to do. I hope this custom template helps you develop your own.

I used transition boards for my daughter for 3 yrs. While challenging, I am SO proud of how she changes tasks now. #AuDHD kids need predictable and visual communication. Our "First and Then" and "To Do List" are updated versions of my daughter's board. May they help you as much as they helped me!

When your kids are too loud and indoor voices have left the building....

We can turn it into a game! They are a roaring lion and their roars slowly shrink before they decide to rest.

By allowing kids to set the pace of when to stop roaring? You reframe the situation into a fun game.

Emotional regulation isn't about stopping emotions—it’s about recognizing them and not letting our emotions control our actions. Overload is painful, but practice helps us navigate it. I’m sharing a free poster & cards to help you find your baseline in stressful times. Please pass it on! #ByUsForUs

When your kids are moving too fast...

It's time to sloooow them dooowwn in a fun and easy way.

Sloth Walk is all about teaching kids to redirect energy towards slowing down and relaxing their bodies.

The goal is to change the behavior. By using Sloth Walk? Slowing down becomes FUN.

My greatest fear with my ADHD children is them running ahead of me when leaving the house. So I created a game. You simply draw unique shapes with numbers in front of your house. If they get ahead? Yell a number or shape. It makes them stop to search and gives you a chance to catch up. #adhd #nd

After big events, I feel sick. It becomes hard to think or even function. I feel so lost, so I wanted a poster to guide me and reclaim my independence. So with Gigi's help, we made a Recovery Checklist. It takes away the thinking and acts as a guide towards recovery and returning to our baseline.

When emotions are running high and the pressure of indecision feels heavy, you don’t have to navigate without support. We created a sensory-friendly version of our check-in poster. You can keep as a small card or hang up as a gentle reminder. May it help you reconnect and pick a path forward.

So, I LOVE Psyduck. Constantly battling overstimulation, a killer headache, and on the verge of erupting? I relate too hard. But it's funny how I give him a break compared to myself. Just as a reminder, "There is beauty in imperfections. They made you who you are."

Looping thoughts are painful, like being trapped. But I noticed my looping became worse if I kept depressing things, like an ugly text. Memory stones are great because it's doing the opposite! It's surrounding yourself with happy memories. Here's a memory stone I made after I got married.
