Carson gets a little overstimulated, anxious, frustrated, or just tired often and he used to find spots to help him calm down. He usually picks a closet or under his bed but those places don't really work. He will tear a closet apart if he tries to go in there, and under his bed is so tight he cant be there for a long time. So I made him this spot, it is behind the rocker in his room. It is surrounded on all sides and is big enough for some of his favorite things. I made him a pirate pillow for his spot and as soon as I showed him he filled it with his animals. He likes to play computer back there and I put his pirate texture board there so he could play with it. He has only invited me inside 1 time to read to him. He has really enjoyed it so far and I think he will really benefit from having his own place that is safe and controlled by him.
