Otto Character Activity Book

Meet Otto - our Sensaroo character who represents the sensory profile of tactile under-responsiveness and seeking.

Otto is super curious and loves to explore the world with her hands. She wants to touch everything — squishy things, rough things, bumpy things, even messy things! If there’s a new texture around, she has to feel it. Sometimes she doesn’t even notice when her hands are sticky or her clothes get wet. She's just too busy exploring! 

This Otto activity book is one of 12 separate downloadable PDF booklets, specifically designed by KaBloom occupational therapists, to help support other OTs working with children experiencing sensory processing challenges! 

Otto's booklet is filled with a range of specifically chosen and designed activities and ideas to help OTs support kids who demonstrate tactile under-responsiveness and seeking traits, just like Otto, to understand their unique sensory profiles, and advocate for their sensory needs.  

What you'll find in the workbook: 

• Full colour, downloadable PDF - 18 pages
• "About Me" page: introducing Otto, her sensory profile and her favourite things 
• "Am I like Otto?" pages: in written checklist and illustration style – to support you to discuss the Otto's sensory profile with your clients, and support them to reflect on how they might also experience that particular sensory profile 
• Regulation strategies pages: also in written checklist and illustration style – to discuss and brainstorm ways your clients can support and advocate for their proprioceptive needs in different environments. Also includes ways others can help support regulation. 
• "Get Crafty" pages: 'Otto's Tactile Arms' craft activity specifically designed with Otto's sensory profile in mind. This craft is a great way to engage children in an activity that supports learning about their sensory profile, but that also offers the opportunity to simultaneously work on other goals – such as fine motor skills, motor planning, and executive functioning. 
• "Get Active" pages: each character has a unique motor-skills based game or activity to support understanding of their sensory profile, while also offering opportunities for real-time regulation, or supporting the development of motor skills.  
• Colouring pages: two colouring pages of Otto in both her regulated and dysregulated pose – these are great multi-purpose pages that you can use in so many ways in your therapy sessions 
• Puppet pages: two full colour puppet cut out templates of Otto in her regulated and dysregulated pose – ready for you to print and laminate and use in your therapy sessions 
• Parent and educator information sheets – each character booklet has two separate handouts for parents and educators, to support them to understand each sensory profile, and strategies for creating a "Otto-friendly" home or classroom.
