Stimtober Day 4- Chewable

I own a lot of chewables, but one of my favorite is this cactus from stimtastic!

4, 13, 20 for the stim ask!

4. What is your least favorite scent?

The smell of chinese food really bothers me for some reason, I don't know why. There's some common spice in it that messes with me I guess.

13. If you could invent a stim toy, what would it be?

I'd love to figure out how to make a dough out if cornstarch that doesn't get dried out easily and doesn't leave so much residue. Cornstarch dough has an amazing texture but it's too messy to stim with regularly sadly.

20. What would be in your dream sensory space?

Remember those climbing ropes with knots in them a lot of school/private gyms have? I would love to have one of those over a soft surface so I could jump off of it. When I used to do gymnastics we had one that went up three whole stories and you could jump off on the top into a foam out and be completely fine.

1, 5, and 6 please and thank you!!

 1. What does your sensory haven look like and what does it include?

I know this is a hypothetical question, but there's actually a very real place that I would consider a sensory haven for me! There's this place in St. Louis, Missouri called the City Museum and it is AMAZING. It's called a museum but it's really more of a 15 story tall jungle gym with lots of cool funky exhibits and activities. Some things I remember liking were a mock cave system, a human sized hamster wheel, a scrap metal jungle gym that was about 100 feet off the ground at many points, the world's largest pencil, and a very large wall panel full of doorknobs. I wouldn't recommend it for people who have lots of auditory sensory issues or are sensitive to bright light, but if you love climbing and swinging and just playing around, it is AWESOME. I really want to go back some day.

5. What kinds of music give you the most sensory input?

Pretty much just ... Any music I like lol. Mostly stuff with a super bouncy/dramatic rhythm. I play percussion, so I have a very deep physical reaction to rhythm even putting sensory stuff aside, so if it has a funky rhythm I'll definitely do some body stims along!

6. What is your best impromptu/unconventional stim toy?

I have so many from over the years... some examples are:

Any drumsticks or mallets. No I do not spin them like most percussionists do, I smack myself in the head, neck, and calves with them

Cats!!! They're soft and make cute noises! And the like to be pet so everyone wins!

My school laptop. Singing about the noise they make when you wack them shits is satisfying to me

Jewelry. this is a p common one but boy did I do it a lot as a kid

Plastic straws at restraunts

I used to take apart mechanical pencils and pens over and over as a kid

So there you go!!! Thank u so much for the ask, I really like answering these!!!

Ask away friends!!!

Stimtober Day 3- Slime

I don't have many slime things oop... I have some thinking putty though! I'm not a huge fan of thinking putty because it's too thick for my tastes, but I really like this one because of how it looks! You can't tell I'm the picture but it has kind of an iridescent sheen to it

Attention people who know how to knit!

I have a blanket that was given to me as a baby and for twenty-three years it has never ceased to be a source of comfort as well as my favorite texture to use for stimming. However, it has been through years of use and is beginning to fall apart and that gives me more anxiety than literally anything else in the world. I have a pattern for it that I have ZERO idea how to read, let alone recreate.

So, I’m looking for someone who can read and recreate this blanket - either make a tutorial video that I can see on YouTube so I can follow along and make my own that way, or send me the one that you make. I am willing to pay substantially for this!

If you are interested, please send me a message and we can talk details. I’ve attached the pictures I have of the pattern from the magazine it comes from, so you can see if it’s possible for you. If you’re not interested, still PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST THIS. There is not much I wouldn’t do to get a replacement, or a way to make my own. If you have any friends not on Tumblr who might interested in doing this, let me know about those, too!

Thanks in advance!

Stimtober Day 1: Squishy Toy

A panda slow rise squish I got as a prize from a claw machine. I'm a day late but I'll be posting day 2's stim toy today as well.

Seeing @electropastry 's post for day 1 inspired me to participate as well!

Stimtober Day 2- Soft Toy

I have many stuffed animals from over the years, but this is the only one I bought specifically for sensory purposes! Eggroll is a Warmies Husky, which means you can heat him up in the microwave! I'm not super find of lavender so the smell can be annoying but I love how long the heat lasts and how he's weighted!

I just got my first order from Stimtastic !!! I never had stim toys before but it’s already been fantastic :0

Delivery was faster than expected since I live in Europe ! I bought a bunch to make it worth the shipping cost

Look at it all….

(There was also a bonus “respect the stim” bracelet ! It’s too big for my wrist tho)

Keep reading

Ive decided to do stimtober! I normally do inktober, but I decided not to this year because it has always caused burnout. So I think a simple photo challenge of things I like will be nice!

Day 1- Squishy Toy. I got this as part of a mystery package from Therapy Shoppe. I don't really like it tbh, I'm not a fan of foam squishies in general, but it's okay to fiddle with for a few seconds at a time.

:0 I think my favorite stim toy is my infinite bubble wrap fidget, though I really like my stimtastic chewies too.... It's so hard to pick!!!

Simpl Dimpl Review

This is one of my favorite small stim toys! The Simpl Dimpl is comprised of two silicone dimples in a hard white plastic casing. You can poke and push them back and forth similar to bubble wrap. They make a satisfying pop sound as they do.

The Simpl Dimpl is a smaller version of the very similar Dimpl made by the same company (Fat Brain Toys). Since the Dimpl was originally intended for infants, all the materials in it are easy to clean and safe to put in your mouth. I believe this is also true for the Simpl version, though I wouldn't recommend chewing it since I have seen reviews where the plastic casing can separate if put under repeated stress.

I really like this toy! I'm a big fan of auditory stims and the sound this thing makes is very satisfying. I do have to be careful of using it too much with one hand because it can rub the skin on my fingers raw. Since it's hard to pop the bubbles without making sound, I wouldn't recommend it for settings where you need to be silent.

Another downside is the price. These usually cost around 6-7 us dollars, which is pretty expensive for what it is. It can also be a bit difficult to find all the colors, I got mine from a Learning Express near my house.

Overall I give this an 8/10!

I can't afford to donate anything, but please consider helping them if you can y'all!!!!

hey, remember this post?

i did all these drawings on my ipad that is unfortunately now broken. The screen is impossible to use for long without injuring myself, and the speakers are no longer functional. not only do i use it for my art, but also as an accessibility tool (AAC, learning accessibility etc).

I really really hate asking for this because there are a lot of people out there that need this stuff way more than me but if you guys could help out this autistic black trans kid with getting it replaced, that would mean so much. I’ll be trying to finish up these if I can get it repaired, as well as doing a thank you commission/gift for anyone who can spare to help out!! Either way thank you so much for reading!

The Slightly Unnerving Carrot Review

I got this weird carrot stress toy at Menard's a few days ago for like 2 dollars, and honestly, despite it being a tad bit cursed visually, it's quickly become one of my favorite things to stim with.

The outside of the carrot is a smooth silicone texture, though it is a bit sticky. It doesn't leave any residue on your hands, but it does attract dust and pet hair, so you'll need to wash it pretty regularly. Perhaps the baby powder trick that works with mochi squishies would work on it?

The inside is filled with sand, and the whole thing holds whatever shape you put it into. It takes a bit of skill to get it back to its original shape but it isn't too hard to do. It makes a delightful crunchy sound and feeling that I really enjoy! It is also pretty heavy due to being filled with sand, so if you like weighted toys it's pretty decent for that too.

Despite it being pretty cheaply made, I can't deny how much I like this thing. I just really like crunchy stims,,,,,

Overall I give this a 7/10, taking away some points due to the stickyness.

(p.s. Though the silicone is pretty durable, I wouldn't recommend this for aggressive stimming since I don't know how much it can take! You can find this and the banana version of it in a lot of stores, they're pretty easy to find.)

When people comment on my posts, draw my characters, or laugh at a joke I make! When my cats snuggle with me too 🥺

guys what makes u rlly happy stim, like i mean REALLY happy stim. mines warrior cats, nostalgic toys from my childhood, and watership down.

hey y'all!!! my last spur of the moment review did really well and people seemed to enjoy it, so here's a review of my second order I did from Stimtastic! (I got this stuff only a few days after the last order, it's been a while oops)

This is the order! I also got a reversible sequin bag and another of the brushes, which I gave to some friends. Overall I enjoy the things from this order much more than the first (tho I like both) since I had a better idea of what type of stim toys I liked.

The brush is AMAZING. It's so stimmy!! The texture is phenomenal and it also makes a really satisfying noise when you quickly run your hands over it! It's also very fun to flap with; In my next order I definitely want to get a second one so I can flap with both hands at once with it. The only downside is that it gets dirty quite easily, especially with hair. It can be washed pretty easily though, after all it is a brush!! This thing is definitely a 9.5/10, the half point taken off because of dirtyness.

Wacky tracks! You can get these from other places too, but I still included it in my order on a whim. I'm glad I did! It's one of my favorite stim toys I own by far, mostly because of the noise it makes. I also got lucky and got one in my two favorite colors lol. It started a bit stiff and hard to move, but after a few days of playing with it I no longer needed to use so much force. 10/10, I'll probably get another one in the same colors to make it longer.

Silicone straw! I got this because I have a bad habit of chewing up plastic straws, and hey it helps reduce waste! I like that it came with a brush (not in the pic) and a nice little case! The main downside of the straw is it has a chemical taste to it that hasn't gone away with washing. It's pretty noticable when chewing :/. Still, for only a dollar, it's pretty good! 5/10

Finally, the soft chewelry bundle! I loved how cheap this bundle is; It's only 12 dollars! The tag is my favorite, since it's so soft and flexible I can chew on it without any fatigue and it's nice to suck on. The dulcimer is very nice for molar chewing, though mine has a slight defect on the underside that gives it a bad texture so I don't use it as much as the tag. The tube is very springy and makes a nice sound, though it's hard to chew on without getting spit all over you due to its shape!! Overall these are very nice chewies for soft chewers like me, 8/10 (the tag is a 10/10 though!)

Overall this purchase was very good! I highly recommend Stimtastic, their items are high quality and very well priced!

stimming when happy: hehe!!! This blanket is so fuzzy and soft!!!! I like to touch and hear things! I'm going to gently rock a little bit but not too much and softly nibble on a chewie

stimming when upset: I am going to throw myself at a wall full force because I need to feel alive
