Frequently Bought Together

Make sensory therapy fun with the Special Supplies Bumble Bee Vibrating Pillow . This engaging, plush cushion is a specialized piece of low-cost assistive technology designed to support NDIS participants (particularly children) with Autism (ASD), ADHD, or sensory processing challenges.

Designed with a cheerful Bumble Bee theme and a soft Minky cover with therapy bumps , this pillow invites interaction. When the user hugs or squeezes the bee, the pressure-activated core comes to life with a soothing vibration. This input helps "organise" the nervous system, reducing hyperactivity and promoting a sense of calm and security. Powered by 4 x AA batteries , it offers robust vibration duration for school days or travel.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

Engaging Sensory Regulation: The friendly character design makes this pillow an approachable "therapy buddy" for children. The combination of vibration (proprioception) and textured bumps (tactile) provides a multi-sensory experience that helps de-escalate meltdowns and manage anxiety.

Improving Sitting Tolerance: For children who struggle to sit still at school or during meals, placing the vibrating bee on their lap provides "heavy work" input. This can satisfy the urge to move, improving focus and attention span.

Tactile Exploration: The raised therapy bumps on the minky fabric allow for discreet fidgeting. This supports children who pick at skin or clothing by providing a safe, satisfying texture to touch.

Portable Emotional Support: Compact (30.5cm) and wire-free, it serves as a transitional object. Children can take their "Bee" to medical appointments or new environments to reduce the stress of the unknown.
