For many children with autism, ADHD, anxiety, or sensory processing challenges, daily life can feel overwhelming. Bright lights, loud sounds, unpredictable transitions—all of these can trigger discomfort, dysregulation, or even meltdowns. The good news? Tools like the Sensory Peapod are now available in Phnom Penh at OrbRom Center, designed specifically to help children feel safe, calm, and in control of their bodies.

The Sensory Peapod provides gentle deep pressure therapy in a fun, inflatable cocoon that children love. Whether used at home, in school, or during therapy, it becomes a personal “safe space” where children can retreat to reset and regulate.

What Is a Sensory Peapod?

A sensory peapod is a soft, inflatable pod-shaped seat made of durable vinyl. When a child sits inside and the sides gently press in, it provides deep touch pressure stimulation (DTPS)—a calming input to the nervous system.

Children with sensory processing disorder (SPD) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often seek this kind of input to help their bodies feel more organized. The Peapod offers a fun, therapeutic way to get that sensory feedback in a safe and structured environment.

Key Features:

  • Comfortable and fun inflatable design

  • Deep pressure stimulation without being restrictive

  • Durable and easy to clean material

  • Quick to inflate and deflate for portability and storage

  • Supports emotional regulation and attention

Why Deep Pressure Therapy Works

Children who are sensory seekers—or who become easily overstimulated—benefit from proprioceptive input, which is input to muscles and joints that helps them feel their body in space. The Sensory Peapod delivers this in a way that is:

  • Non-threatening: Feels like a hug, but on the child’s terms

  • Instantly calming: Helps transition from hyperactivity to stillness

  • Empowering: Children can choose when they need a break

For many families in Phnom Penh, this can mean fewer meltdowns, smoother bedtimes, or better focus during homeschool and therapy sessions.

A Tool for Home, School, and Therapy

At OrbRom Center in Phnom Penh, we’ve used the Sensory Peapod as part of our occupational therapy sessions with children who need extra sensory support. But it’s also ideal for home and classroom use. Here’s how:

At Home:

  • Morning routine: A few minutes in the Peapod before school can help regulate energy levels.

  • After-school decompression: Provides a safe space to relax after a long day.

  • Before bed: Helps children wind down and prepare for restful sleep.

In Classrooms:

  • Calm-down corner: A Peapod can help prevent meltdowns during overwhelming moments.

  • Focus support: Helps some students stay in their seats during group activities.

  • Sensory break tool: Supports better behavior and attention after movement or pressure breaks.

In Therapy Settings:

  • Occupational therapists use the Peapod as part of sensory diets, helping children improve body awareness, reduce anxiety, and develop self-regulation skills.

Real Results from Real Kids

One of our students, a 6-year-old boy with autism, uses the Peapod every morning before circle time. Just five minutes inside the pod helps him regulate his energy and join the group calmly. Another child with ADHD uses it after school to decompress before homework—turning meltdowns into manageable moments.
