[QUOTE="canadianmom1, post: 38519, member: 3667"] My son has major sensory issues with noise. His old Occupational Therapist (OT) suggested we let him wear ear plugs. Just the ones you put in for swimming.They do not go right in the ear but prevent water fro getting in.. It worked like a charm. He could still hear when we talked to him but it help him to filter out sounds that bothered him. He doesn't wear them at school anymore but we still put them in when we go to the mall or to places that have a lot of noises at one time. As far as the clothing issues.. That has been fun to deal with. He is wearing jeans for the first time this year. He stil hates rough fabic such as cords. He will not wear sandles or anything with an open toe. The sheets on his bed have to be jersy material or he can't sleep. His socks can't be worn twice or washed before he wears them. Underpants have to be the fitted boxer style and they also can't be washed more than once. Dressing this kid gets very interesting some times. I love the summer when he pretty much wears his swim shorts all the time. [/QUOTE]
