Lukas’ Bed Tent
Lukas is a four-year-old boy who loves swimming, jumping, going to the zoo and aquarium, coin collecting and playing with animals. He enjoys school and putting on “shows” for friends and family. He is funny, witty, and smart. He enjoys making people laugh.
Lukas has a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder and has difficulty sleeping at night. When he is unable to sleep well, he is very tired during the day. For Christmas Lukas received a regular play tent. He enjoyed being enclosed in a smaller, different space and would often fall asleep in the tent. Placing the play tent on Lukas’ bed was unsafe so upon his therapist’s suggestion the family requested a bed tent.
The bed tent will help Lukas sleep better and be well rested during the day. The tent will make going to bed an exciting part of his night time routine and will help him feel safe and settled at night.
