Sensory Play

Sensory play is a crucial and important part of child development. Sensory bins/kits provide a wealth of opportunities for sensory exploration, allowing children to engage with various textures, color and materials at their own pace. Whether they are digging their hands into a bin of soft, squishy play dough or watching colorful rice cascade through their fingers, sensory play offers tactile, visual, and auditory experiences that can be both calming and enriching. 

The sensory stimulation they provide helps develop important skills such as fine motor control, hand-eye coordination, and language development. Sensory play also teaches cause and effect as your child manipulates the materials, experiments with different combinations, and observes the outcomes of their actions. Sensory bins are also soothing and therapeutic for children who may be overwhelmed by their surroundings or struggle to regulate their emotions.
