Does anyone have, or care for a child with sensory issues?

I care for a 4 years old that I'm thinking has some sort of oral sensory disorder. He is super picky, he only eats a few things, and have a texture adversion to anything else that it is not on his list of favorites. When he tries new food he normally gags, and spit/throw everything up. If he eats one thing one day, it is not guaranteed that he will the next time.

He is constantly mouthing toys, or his fingers, or his shirt, or I find him licking the wall, or chewing/sucking on the couch fabric, and he loves salty foods.
If he doesn't have something in his mouth, he is constantly playing with his tongue...

His brother has adhd, and sensory issues are sometimes connected with adhd.

Any input?
