Noise character - sensitive frog representing sound sensitivity and auditory overload in children with autism

Noise

"Some sounds feel too loud for my ears."

Noise represents children who experience sounds more intensely than others.

For Tamito, sounds can feel bigger than life. What's just everyday background noise for others can be overwhelming for him — a passing truck, a ticking clock, too many voices at once. Sometimes, the ordinary world is simply too loud. When that happens, Tamito retreats into his own safe space, finding the quiet that helps him breathe again. In that silence, he can recharge, think clearly, and feel safe.
