A fabulous Irish company with a wide variety of items to meet all sensory needs

The items ordered were just as described on the website. Contact and confirmation was prompt. This company are very helpful and very easy to deal with. They have such a great variety of items that meet a number of sensory needs. Got all my OT colleagues ordering too. I’m an SLT. Great to support a fantastic Irish company. I’ll be back ordering more for sure.

We ordered a set of sensory dance scarves from Otavo for the New School’s Music for Me pre-instrumental (early years) music courses for children aged 3-4, 4-5 and 5-6, which also include children with special needs. The scarves arrived promptly and are just what we needed. Thank you.
