Abstract

Sensory integration is a process that occurs naturally and becomes parts of the brain. In this process, information from all the senses will be managed then given meaning and then filtered whether it was important or were ignored. This process allowed individuals to behave according to experience and was the basis for academic abilities and subsequent social behavior. Apart from the five individual senses, namely the eyes, nose, tongue, ears, and skin, from birth humans are equipped with close senses in charge of receiving stimuli that come from the body. There are 3 senses that are closest to the child, tactile, vestibular, proprioceptive. These three senses are fundamental to be the basis for the development of a healthy child. When these senses function automatically and efficiently, a child will have eyes and ears and good attention to the world around him. Sensory integration stimulation becomes very important for the optimization of child development especially in early childhood.
