Sensorial Exporation

Sensory play is an essencial part of child's development. It helps build connections in the brain’s pathways, supports language development, cognitive growth, fine and gross motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction.

It is also great to help calm children down when they are feeling anxious. Through their five senses, children experience various sensations, such as hot, cold, sticky, dry, rough, 
soft, bitter, sweet, spicy, among others.

Here are some snapshots of sensorial activities children have been exploring with:
