The TFH Sensory Room Kit - Starter Package creates a sensory corner. The Enhanced Package creates a sensory room. That is the distinction, and it matters. At $10,788 CAD, the Enhanced Package contains everything in the Starter - the bubble tube, mood dice, bean bag, reflections blankets, mirrors, Hug Boat, and Aura Projector - and adds five components that shift the environment from visually calming to fully multi-sensory: 100 strands of fibre optic tails, a Table Top Whirlwind Air Tube with podium, a Soft Pressure Ball Blanket, and the Sounds to Lights Interactive Panel. These additions deliver sensory inputs across two systems the Starter does not cover - auditory interaction and the whole-body tactile experience of fibre optics and pressure stimulation. You need approximately seven feet of square floor space to achieve the full setup across Canada & the US - enough room for a dedicated school sensory room, a therapy clinic corner, an adult day program space, or a generous home sensory area.

This is Stage Two of the three-tier Build-in-Stages system. It carries everything forward from the Starter Package and lays the foundation for the Immersive Package (which adds a fibre optic carpet, wireless Genie App control, acrylic mirror wall panels, and more for a twelve-foot footprint). Nothing in the Enhanced Package is discarded or replaced when upgrading.

What Is Included - The Starter Foundation

The Enhanced Package begins with the complete Starter Package foundation:

Giant 48" Water Bubble Tube

The visual centrepiece - colour-changing LED bubbles rising continuously through water, creating the predictable, calming focal point that anchors the sensory environment and invites users into the space.

LED Colour Changing Mood Dice

A tactile-interactive colour control tool - users roll, tip, or orient the dice to change the bubble tube's LED colour. More playful and physically engaging than a standard controller, the dice format invites handling and repeated interaction.

Bean Bag Pouffe

Floor-level soft seating that positions users comfortably close to the bubble tube, creating the physical proximity that maximises the tube's visual and vibrational impact.

Set of 3 Reflections Blankets

Soft, light-reflective blankets that wrap around users or drape across seating, combining tactile comfort with a gentle visual enhancement that multiplies the light from the bubble tube and projector.

Set of Small Round Mirrors

Positioned around the bubble tube to multiply the perception of light and colour, creating the impression of a larger, more immersive visual environment.

Medium Harkla Hug Boat

A deep-pressure comfort enclosure that provides proprioceptive grounding for users who need physical containment alongside the visual stimulation of the room.

Aura Projector with Liquid and Blossom Wheel

A wall-projection element that fills the room with slowly moving organic imagery - the visual layer that transforms a plain wall into part of the sensory environment.

What the Enhanced Package Adds - The Five Enhancements

100 Strands of Fibre Optic Tails with Sparkle Light Source

This is the addition that most significantly expands the sensory experience. One hundred colour-changing fibre optic tails - each 80 inches long - can be draped, held, wrapped around the body, and explored with the hands. The Sparkle Light Source cycles through 16 colours with the signature sparkle effect. Where the bubble tube provides visual stimulation from a fixed point, the fibre optic tails bring colour and light into the user's hands - making the visual experience tactile simultaneously. For occupational therapists, fibre optic tails are one of the most versatile tools in sensory integration practice precisely because they serve visual, tactile, and proprioceptive systems at the same time.

Table Top Whirlwind Air Tube with Podium

A waterless alternative to the bubble tube - the Whirlwind Air Tube uses a fan to push lightweight styrofoam beads in a swirling, continuous upward spiral through an acrylic column. The effect is visually distinct from the bubble tube, the gentle fan creates an auditory element, and the column sits on a dedicated podium for stable floor positioning. Having both the bubble tube and the Whirlwind Air Tube in the same space gives users two different visual focal points and two different auditory textures - expanding the regulation toolkit available in a single session.

Soft Pressure Ball Blanket

A whole-body deep pressure tool - a blanket filled with small balls that distributes even, gentle weight across the body. Where the Hug Boat provides proprioceptive input through enclosure, the Pressure Ball Blanket provides it through distributed weight across the lying-down or seated user. For users who regulate through deep pressure, having both tools available means the therapist or caregiver can offer the format that best suits the individual's needs in each session.

Sounds to Lights Interactive Panel

The component that adds sound-to-light interaction to the environment. The Sounds to Lights Panel responds to voices, music, breath, and ambient sound with a corresponding LED light display - the louder or higher-pitched the sound, the brighter and more vivid the light response. This introduces an auditory dimension to the sensory room that the Starter Package's components do not provide, and it creates a cause-and-effect interaction loop between vocalisation and visual response that is particularly valuable for communication development and engagement in users who are working on vocal or breath control.

Key Features of the TFH Sensory Room Kit - Enhanced Package

• 12 Professional-Grade Sensory Room Components - The full Starter Package foundation of seven items plus five targeted enhancements, all selected from TFH's most trusted therapeutic and sensory equipment range
• Fits in a Seven-Foot Square Footprint - Designed for approximately seven feet of square floor space - larger than a corner but smaller than a full room; suitable for a school sensory room, a therapy clinic bay, a residential care space, or a generous home area
• Four Sensory Systems Covered - Visual (bubble tube, tails, projector, mirrors), tactile (blankets, fibre optic tails, bean bag), proprioceptive (Hug Boat, Pressure Ball Blanket), and auditory (Whirlwind sound, Sounds to Lights panel) - a genuinely multi-sensory environment
• Stage Two of Three - Carries Forward to Immersive - Every component in this package carries forward into the Immersive Package upgrade, which adds a fibre optic carpet, wireless app control, acrylic mirror panels, and more for a twelve-foot footprint
• Waterless Air Tube Alongside Water Bubble Tube - Having both column types in the same space gives users two distinct visual experiences and two different auditory environments within a single sensory room
• Sound-Reactive Light Interaction - The Sounds to Lights Interactive Panel introduces a communication and vocalization engagement tool not present in the Starter, opening up new therapeutic possibilities for speech, language, and auditory processing sessions
• Components May Vary - Due to supply availability, specific components may be substituted with equivalent products of equal or greater value; contact The Sensory Supply for current kit contents before ordering
• Durable Institutional-Grade Equipment - Every component is drawn from TFH's established range of long-lasting sensory room equipment, built to withstand daily use in schools, clinics, and care facilities

Who Is This Package For - Choosing Between Starter, Enhanced & Immersive

The Starter Package (5-foot footprint, $3,988 CAD) is the right choice for a first sensory room, a compact calm corner, or any setting where space and budget are tight but therapeutic impact matters.

The Enhanced Package (7-foot footprint, $10,788 CAD) is the right choice when the Starter foundation is confirmed to work and the next level of multi-sensory depth is needed - specifically when fibre optic tactile input, auditory interaction, and a second visual column are therapeutic priorities. It is also the right choice when building from scratch in a space large enough to justify the full setup.

The Immersive Package (12-foot footprint) is the right choice for a full dedicated sensory room with wireless app control and the complete TFH multi-sensory room experience.

All three packages use the same core components - the investment in the Starter or Enhanced is never wasted.

Skills, Development & Therapeutic Benefits Supported by this Kit

• Multi-Sensory Integration - Simultaneous engagement of visual, tactile, proprioceptive, and auditory systems within a single safe environment supports the nervous system's ability to organise, process, and respond to sensory information
• Visual Regulation & Attention - The combined effect of bubble tube, fibre optic tails, projector, and mirrors creates a rich, controllable visual environment that supports sustained attention, visual tracking, and self-regulation through predictable, calming visual input
• Tactile Exploration & Desensitisation - Fibre optic tails and the reflections blankets provide varied tactile inputs that can be self-directed, supporting gradual tactile desensitisation and sensory tolerance in a low-demand, high-reward format
• Proprioceptive & Deep Pressure Input - The Hug Boat and Pressure Ball Blanket together offer two formats of deep pressure stimulation, covering both enclosure-based and weight-based proprioceptive input for users with different regulation preferences
• Auditory Processing & Vocalisation Development - The Sounds to Lights Interactive Panel connects vocal output to visual response, creating a feedback loop that motivates vocalisation, breath control, and sound exploration in a visually rewarding format
• Cause & Effect Learning & Independence - The Mood Dice gives users interactive colour control; the Sounds to Lights panel responds to voice; together they build a sensory room where the user is an active agent rather than a passive recipient
• Sensory Regulation Across Arousal Levels - With tools that both stimulate (fibre optic tails, Sounds to Lights panel, Whirlwind tube) and calm (Hug Boat, Pressure Ball Blanket, bubble tube), the Enhanced Package supports users at different arousal levels within a single session

Ideal For

The TFH Sensory Room Kit - Enhanced Package is designed for schools building a dedicated sensory room (rather than a corner), occupational therapy clinics equipping a full sensory treatment bay, adult day programmes and residential care facilities creating a multi-sensory environment for adults with sensory and communication needs, hospital paediatric wards and rehabilitation centres where multi-system sensory input is a therapeutic priority, and families with a dedicated sensory space who are ready to move beyond a sensory corner.
