Down syndrome is a disorder that cannot be treated, although there are techniques and tips to maintain the developing abilities of children and infants to respond to the environment.

If you are a grandparent or someone who needs to pick up a gift for a child or teen with Down syndrome, you need to know what Down syndrome is and what type of gift works well with children with Down syndrome so that you don’t offend the child’s sensitivity. Often the gifts must also be sensitive to the feelings of the parents, since they are the ones who have this child who is different from other children.

Children with Down syndrome must be specifically prepared to respond to the social fabric that surrounds them, as well as to be receptive to the needs of the social environment in which they find themselves. Down syndrome can affect children’s sensory movements or children’s muscle movements.

Motor movements are of two types, namely the large motor movements and the fine motor movements. The great motor movements are of legs and arms. There are special gifts for children who are slow to have these movements. These toys can be given as gifts to children, for example, toys with sounds or toys with special gyms that will help develop strength in the arms and legs.

The sensory skills of children with Down syndrome are also very weak, and the best gift for children with Down syndrome is to give them things that can develop these skills. These gifts include special checkout blankets or quilts with large patches of different colors and sizes that will help develop a sense of color and size.

Another very special need of children with the disorder is the need to have a partner to socialize with and to be told that they are sensitive and can be cared for. The need for emotional security is very important to them. Therefore, there are dolls on the market that are made keeping in mind the above fact that I have stated above regarding the need for emotional and social security.

So be sure to give a down syndrome appropriate gift.
