Hands on Sensory Play Equals A World of Fun!
Sensory bins are excellent tools for engaging multiple senses, which help enhance sensory processing and overall development. They provide a hands on experience that promote motor skills and creativity. These bins also encourage creative play and focus as they explore different textures, colors and objects. In addition, they can be calming and therapeutic, helping children regulate emotions during stress, frustration or overstimulation.
Sensory Boxes: A World of Exploration in Every Touch
Sensory boxes are becoming a vital part of supporting our students’ social and emotional needs. Joy and I have put boxes together for several teachers, students and even for the administration at our school. A box is going to look different depending on the purpose of its use. The boxes for our principal and assistant principal have a variety of items because they work with multiple students daily across all grade levels.
