I have a sensory seeker as well, and we got a medium sized netted trampoline to help him. The big ones tend to mess with insurance coverage, and also do feel scary, but we cleared this one with our insurance and it has been such a blessing to him/us.
um how the hell does insurance have anything to do with things you have a right to put in your own backyard??!
@@mellissamercado7904 it’s strange, but home insurance can refuse to insure you with full trampolines, just like some will refuse to insure you if you have an “aggressive” breed of dog. In some areas, insurance can require you to have safety fencing around a pool, whereas most areas in the US don’t. I live in an area off the Gulf of Mexico, where it is already hard to get insurance because of hurricane risks, so they get to make whatever rules they want.
I am the sensory seeker 😭😭
@@lovesongmelody56 have you ever used a ball chair? Or ever used a regular exercise ball as your seat? The bouncing and rocking while doing something as simple as watching TV or eating dinner can provide that sensory input the brain/nerves/body crave so much!
@@DebBeePlus3 Late reply, but I have! It helps me so much
I’m 40 and AuDHD….skyzine has saved my own sanity a few times. The instant sensory push back feels so good.
Wtf are u watching this if ur 40

I’m autistic and adhd, I was very similar as a kid. I wasn’t diagnosed until a years ago because my parents didn’t know anything about autism. I’m really happy that you show others what it might be like for kid like us!
Im autistic aswell i love sensory thing and i like baby toys but the thing i do the most is zoning out and gand flapping❤!!
I'm also autistic 😊
I’m also both
As someone with Autism and ADHD I can say that I was exactly the same as him when I was younger. I loved to move and hop around all day.
I have ADHD and autism and I can relate to this boy when I was a little kid. I am 15 now and watching these little ones having fun at a park or something just brings back memories of when it was normal to be wild and act immaturely. What annoys me most is people who think other people like me with AUTISM is straight-up Asperger's. Most of us autistic people just have learning disabilities just like any kid with ADHD would. Now me and the little boy in the video have both LOL.
It all depends where you are on the spectrum.
God bless this little boy 🙏
Not all people with ADHD have learning disabilities sure some do, but not all. I have ADHD and mine is mostly inattentive.
I'm a 24 year old with Autism who's never been to a trampoline park. I've been wanting to go to Sky Zone for the longest time!
Its so much fun! Be prepared to get very hot, sweaty and puffed though; bring a lot of water, wear cooling clothes, and rest as you need it. If i were you I'd try to go in off-peak hours eg during school time, so its not as loud as it can get pretty chaotic and overwhelming when there are a lot of kids there
I also recommend wearing earplugs if you can! These types of parks are filled with screaming kids and its one big open space so it tends to get pretty damn loud in there, and headphones will just fall off your head if youre jumping. I highly recommend going to one tho, its very fun!
I’m autistic and I have ADHD, but I was apparently easy to raise, I just needed to run around like a mad man outside lol
Somehow I never broke a bone, except for somewhat recently when I stubbed my toe badly and apparently it broke
To have no awareness a farm is a wonderful beautiful magical and unfortunately rare thing in children I'm glad you're watching over him keep up the good work he seems like a happy little guy
He lookes so happy ❤
Aw he’s cute and I hope for the best future
As an adult person who has ADHD, autism, and is also a intense sensory seeker, I will now be using the term sensory seeker. Thank you.
We put a full sized Trampoline inside our home, losing a full room to it and it changed our life with our sensory seeker !! 10 out of 10, would definitely recommend it!! We have 3 boys with Autism and they all benefit, but our sensory boy absolutely needed it for hours every day.
i have a little autistic brother who’s turning 8, i never really knew what sensory seeking met, but the second you said “tickles and grabs” i immediately thought of him! we’re always tickling him and playfully chasing him around the house
I'm almost 20 with ADHD and autism. This is so amazing to see. You are an amazing mother and parent and your husband's an amazing father. Keep up the amazing work and please never give up on your kids. My mom was there for me through out my time in school and is the only way I graduated high school and she is still helping me to this day. Thanks for making these videos. Love you guys
He is adorable. Truly adorable!!!!
I get yelled at for running around in the house or wanting to be outside because I have adhd. Your a good mother for letting him let his energy out because if he’s like me it’ll make him upset not being able to move around and have to sit all the time.
I love
Skyzone literally just came back the other day from it
If a child walked up to me at Skyzone and asked me to tickle him I’d be terrified.
I have autism and adhd and I love going to sky zone trampolines are the best!
❤ I have a friend with the same diagnoses. I am professional ballet dancer, and he's also our choreographer besides being ballet professional for more than 40 years. Above everything, he is such strong, adorable, loving and honest guy, and that shows immediately. Everyone loves him the moment they see him for the first time, the moment he opens his mouth. He is terribly witty and of extremely high moral values and is the epitome of that sincere, human goodness. Our entire theatre troupe works much better and we all try harder, given that it is evident that he puts in all the effort that is possible to put in every single moment. He is also open to talk to us in depth, about anything that bothers us. He just gets people, and has love for everyone. We're all better people because of him. And he reminds me terribly of your Griffin. ❤
I’m 53 and I have ADD. One part of me says: Let’s go outside, meet people and have fun, the other side of my brain says otherwise: Stay in your bed for your safety and you never end with a broken heart. One side of my brain says: You are intelligent and kind, people will love you right away. The other side of my brain says: You were never good at nothing and a failure. Today I went to Skyzone for the first time with a group of friends. I was jumping around, climbing like a spoiled teenager and just having fun. You are never too old to have fun nor too young to feel pain in every single bone! Well, Advil helps! I was having the time of my life!😊
Bros as useful as a minecraft dirt block 💀💀💀
Is there something wrong with him? I think he's a wonderful kid.
Let's not judge people for their disabilities, and what they can't control. Okay?
@@inkling-yw5jryou cant tell me nothing chubby noob
Try semi silk or silk to calm him down before bed becuase i also have adhd and auism and silk is is a nice sensory to hold before sleeping
That is ofc if he has troubles or if u decide to try totally up to u , hope it helps tho 😊💜
I have three brothers with autism. It’s very hard, but also centuries like that are very fun for them. They love to jump and they love to play.❤❤❤❤ your son is really adorable by the way😂😂
Awwww he is precious ❤🥰 I’m so sorry if you don’t believe but God bless you all so greatly! 🙏🥰 may he know how loved he is 🙏🥰💕💕🕊:))
OMG he’s so cute this just made my day
As a fellow sensory seeker I get that, often times I will ask my friends if they would like to play with my hair or draw on me. Along with that when I am overwhelmed sometimes I will ask my girlfriend if she can just lay on me, I find the weight very comforting
Timmah 😮💨
I have the same concerns with my 5yo. He’s autistic level IiI and loves engaging but doesn’t understand appropriate boundaries or safety awareness. How do you cope with the stress of all that and still let him enjoy his time on outings? I’m still trying to figure it out.
😊😊😅😅😅
Teach him safety in public, stranger danger etc.
@@lulucakeloveno in case of sensory seeking this will do nothing.
You need to eliminate the need for sensory seeking behavior by making sure he‘s well enough stimulated, then you can teach him.
I am personally a sensory avoider and you absolutely need to be sure that I‘m calm enough before I can absorb any information. Being Over-or understimulated is an all-encompassing feeling that doesn’t leave room for input.
Go exploring with your son. Try every kind of activity together if you have free time. Sit him down in a massage chair if you go to a mall. Go out in the forest exploring. Ride a train. Go to a theme park, a water park. Places that require kids to sit still or not touch things to learn aren’t suited for him so go easy on museums, zoos. There’s to many things you’re not allowed to touch. This is hell for kids like that and you will have to correct his behavior all the time and he will internalize that and think he is „wrong“. See which activity fulfills his needs the most. If you find something that can calm him down, find a way to incorporate that into his life.
If he is save to interact with more people then you can also introduce him to different sports, gymnastics, swimming, surfing, diving, Dancing and martial arts are among the most sensory stimulating activities. Horse riding is as well but it’s very expensive and dangerous. If he has good coordination, let him play football, learn how to juggle, let him explore his creativity with tricks.
If he often wants to be held or squeezed, get him a weighted blanket. If he likes stimulation on his feet, put a sensory Matt below his chair at the table so he has a way to not loose his sensory intake while eating. Get him one of those big cushions filled with little styrofoam balls to sit down in. He’ll love it. The more opportunities he has to calm his needs, the less issues you’ll have with him.
Test how much time he can be focused before needing a break. All time that he is not sensory seeking is focused time. If you teach your son to recognize when he’s in need of a break and give him opportunities to regulate himself he will start regulating himself.
When you’re at this point it is appropriate to talk about boundaries and stranger danger. Don’t make your kid feel guilty for having needs, explain to him why strangers aren’t the ones responsible for taking care of them.
Yeah, I worked with a little guy like that at a daycare. I was his "guy" when we were playing outside because he just came to like me most of everyone. So he spent a lot of time just walking around holding my hand. He could not talk and had no impulse control. So he could jump from a rock into my arms without warning.
Still, I had so much fun. And, when I returned from vacation, he came running to me... and cried out my name. I just about died hearing my own name. I had never heard him talk, and he learned to say my name.
My son is a sensory seeker and adhd my mom found an old hospital bed at a second hand place. It’s an all metal frame and the support structure to hold the mattress is SPRINGS!!! It changed our lives whenever he gets stressed or overwhelmed we tell him to go bounce on his bed 😊😊 he kneels in the middle instead of day standing or sitting
Kid got a ribbon for everything I bet🥹 so wholesome
Definitely would recommend getting a trampoline for the backyard if you can, I’m similar in that I have a ton of extra energy from adhd and am sensory seeking and I’ve found that having my own trampoline can even help avoid sensory overload from all the lights and people plus it’s cheaper to pay for a single $100 trampoline than multiple payments over and over again to play at skyzone
God what a great parent I wish I had a place like this where I live but I just have to find other ways to deal with my adhd
another audhd person! i love sky zone and always have when i was a kid!!!
He is so adorable 😭❤️
I just realized that’s probably why I liked gymnastics so much as a kid
22 yr old ADHD here. i've always been obsessed with thrill rides i love the sensory stimulation from being thrown around. i still visit trampoline parks
Always loved trampolines and swings. I’m AuDHD and got into gymnastics. 44 and still doing it!!
I love Sky Zone! 😊
16 M with autism here, I feel so bad for my parents because of what I used to put them through, you're a trooper mom, stay strong
Be very careful I broke my leg and ankle there and shifted my growth plant backwards surveyor. It hurt very bad, and I had to be in a cast in a boot in a wheelchair for over eight weeks.
That sounds like a you problem
@@bitchlasagna1 ok
I work at skyzone and have autism myself! I LOVE going in on glow nights if i have the day off since the lighting is perfect for my eyes
awwwwww bless his heart he's so adorable and precious
I have adhd and a pretty big trampoline, it really helps I go on it every day I can.
I'm on my dad's account but I have ADHD and autism as well and I find this relatable
Like the socks he's wearing, cute.
He is so CUTE!!!!!! As someone with ADHD, I love seeing different ways people deal with the H part of it!
Also, if he’s feeling stressed out, try giving him some headphones and turning on 8D Audio. It’s AWESOME and basically the sound moves from one headphone to the other and you can feel it moving in your head! I know that it helps me to calm down and some of my neurodivergent friends as well!
This kid is like a mini me and my brother!!☺☺☺☺
i have autism and adhd and i love lying on the vertical trampolines it feels so good, rolling around?! even better!
I almost permanently broke my spine at a trampoline park
Now thats an amazing mother. He looks so happy to be in your arms, he sure has one great mom.
Your son looks so cute!
Me, myself have the same conditions! (Autism, and ADHD) the best way to take care of a child with those conditions is to give them a stress ball, TRUST ME ON THIS ONE.
I also have adhd. THIS LOOKS SO FUN
I can understand! My little brother has autism.❤ we go to sky sone sometimes like for my birthday last year we went there and he loved it and he was only 5.😊
Yup! Give ur kid all the proprioception he can handle. It will help him to organize his body for table tasks! 😊
i have autism and i LOVE trampolines. Next to swings those are like my favorite thing to do lol
I wish we had such a place in our area. My son could still use this at age 24.
get 1 of the excersise trampolines for home where you can put it in the house and that way he can jump on it and it's small enough of he jumps off of it he want get hurt and also your able to keep it inside so no matter how the weather is he can play on it. it was a life saver for my son who is the same way. he would climb on the dresser or beds an jump off them also do joint compressions that helps alot as well.
I had one of those as a kid and they suck 😭 they’re so stiff and you can’t bounce around like you can on a normal trampoline you just go up and down it always made me have a meltdown and my parents noticed that and decided to use it as punishment and forced me to jump on it when I was “bad” until I got sick
My little sister has Autism. I don't know all the details but has started talking more and more and is making good improvements.
genuinely who the hell doesnt like skyzone, trampolines are awesome
I have Autism and ADHD I was diagnosed just a little bit ago and I can relate to him ❤️
im both sensory avoident and seeking- mostly avoident for lights and textures and noise, but compression is amazing and toe walkong is mm yes- adhd as well😊
Same ❤ I have both and I love sensory ❤
I wish people knew that ADHD does not mean you have mor energy you have a greater drive to find the most stimulating and pleasurable thing.
I'm dying from this😂😂😂
I LOVE skyzone
Get this boy his own trampoline with a net between the actual trampoline, and where the springs connect to it, so his foot doesnt go through the holes or hit the springs with his head. then it will be a safe place! i love places like sky zone, for me it was called Bounce U, and it was amazing
As a woman with adhd and asd, I was the exact opposite lol I would’ve stayed in my own square and hated being touched. Glad they know what’s best for their kid, just interesting to see how others are with my conditions.
The fact that I have DIAGNOSED ADHD, AM IN THE AUTISM RANGE, AND THAT SKYZONE LOOKS AWFULLY SIMILAR is much a coincidence.
HE IS SO CUTE!!!!!!❤
I swear the entire spectrum is such an interesring thing, the same diagnosis can have completely different symptoms from one another. Personally i have Aspergers syndrome and i need quite litterally the exact OPPOSITE treatment (which consists of a dark room with either earbuds or a pillow over my ears) at times because my senses are cranked up to 1000. Either way im glad this channel exsits because it helps bring awareness to childhood autism without butchering it (looking at you autism speaks, "I am Autism" is such a terrible representation of autism)
I have autism and adhd too, im not an extreme sensory seeker but its still there. My parents take me to places like waterparks or anywheree that can help me the energy from my adhd
I have ADHD and OCD my friends stare at me when I’m doin what my brain tells me to do😂
I have the same thing! Love ya
sky zone is so much fun
Imagine being a parent there and see a little kid waddling up to you saying tickle me😂
I have adhd and autism i have sensory issues and issues being in place with other people but still much energy so it’s kinda hard to do stuff with my energy but jumping at jump yards is really helpful to do
oh man is that why i would just saddle up with total strangers as a kid cause that would make sense
I have a 7 year old autistic brother and to be honest I which I could enjoy myself there but I have to keep a eye at him at all times. Whenever he socializes with others he hurts them not on purpose. Kinda stressful but I love him enough to try
My twins are two and a half and are autistic. They love skyzone and our trampoline at home
I want to that deserland before and he’s cute ☺️
That’s kids got some cool eyes
OMG I love sky zomne
Ok now I don’t feel so alone my son has ADHD and he loves to be tickled and held/ grabbed I usually have to tell him to put his hands in his pockets when I see him being impulsive
Sky zone is awesome
My daughter is the same I'm thinking of getting her a mini trampoline
I have a son who has adhd and the mini trampoline was so helpful when he was growing up
I'm also a sensory seeker myself. I have ADHD, Anxiety, Asperger's (yes I still use the actual diagnosis), Borderline Personality, Depression, and PTSD.
The PTSD is fun 🫠
But yeah we have no sensory awareness at times.
I’m glad to hear that you’re keeping a eye on him! Since I know some parents will just leave them be and let the people around him deal with it. And then also get really mad if someone complains about it.
I forgot is sky zone rock n jump but the new version but nice way to take car of him😊
Such a cute and special little guy! ❤🎉
Imagine you go to sky zone with your kid and your string down on a bench and some random kid comes up to you like * "can I have cuddlds" *
Kawaii your son is kawaii🤭❤
at least you stay with your son I work at a trampoline park and parents with children who have autism will not pay attention to them at all
“Hey my son is broken can I return it”
This is so wholesome keep being a good parent❤
Wow a parent who actually makes sure their kid isn’t annoying
I have that same shirt!
If you ever get the chance to attend or have one one your area, I HIGHLY recommend Urban Air for all the additional activities as well as the trampolines. My kiddos LOVE it. My bladder and pelvic floor do NOT. 😣🤣
