What should I get?
What do you have that your kid enjoys?
DS is very high sensory seeking.
I know I want a trampoline. Which company? Size? Etc
And a soft play indoor jungle gym type of thing
And a sensory swing.
There is so much out there to choose from.
What items do you have? Company? Style?

Install a hook or even two (hammock swing) meant for swings into a beam in your ceiling.
Once you have that, you can always stock up on different swings, or make your own. Such as a Lycra material swing, a net type swing, a flat board swing that can turn 360,
Ball pit
Trampoline
Gym mats
Exercise ball
Bean bag chairs

If you have room outside, kids usually like the large trampolines better. However, if you get a small one get one with a handle.
I know someone who has this indoor jungle gym http://limikids.com/ and loves it. I don't know how much it is though.
A hopper ball is a lot of fun for a 3 year old.
I never got a swing in the end, but if you are looking into a fair price one I heard great reviews from the ikea one
The are tons of blogs out there with great information. I made some homemade toys and did activities recommended by the writers. It really worth googling, many of the bloggers did tons of research already.

Get a Lycra/spandex material jumper. Your child can go in it and jump or stretch for proprioceptive input.
Another idea is a play tent, if your child is sensitive to stimulation s/he can go in there for breaks.

Would a moon bounce work as well as a trampoline. My sister in law got a smallish one Little Tikes 8x8 ft that goes up quickly. I always feel it is safer then a trampoline.

We have the ikea swing and my sensory seeking child LOVES it.
We converted an old pack n play into a ball pit, but if you have the money to spend, you can probably find a nicer ball pit.
Excersize ball
Crash pad
Weighted blanket
Fidgets
Sit and spin
We have a bouncy horse called rody that my kids like.
Lycra Resistance tunnel
