Sensory

1/1/2019

 

Why Sensory?

  • Children are naturally drawn toward sensory stimulating experiences, incorporating movement and one or more of the five senses: sight, touch, taste, smell, and hearing.
  • Sensory play builds nerve pathways and connections in developing brains. 
  • Sensory play is open-ended, allowing children to use their creativity and imaginations, without requiring a specific outcome.
  • Skills such as critical thinking, motor (gross and fine), social and language, all benefit and develop from sensory discovery experiences.
  • Sensory play is an important tool in calming a child, building mindfulness, and can help children who have difficulty with verbal expression, or filtering out non-essential information.
