The whole world is sensory. We learn about our environment, our likes and dislikes, and ourselves by exploring using our senses. When we offer children sensory invitations to play we are encouraging them to engage with the world; to be curious, inquisitive, bold, creative, and versatile. We’re giving them the benefit of hands-on learning, encouraging them to use their whole brain and whole body for richer, broader, deeper learning.
Sensory invitations to play are so adaptable. They can spark excitement in learning and soothe and calm children. They are open-ended for creative play and linked to structured academic learning. They are useful for children who are sensory seekers and those who are sensory avoiders. And they are a wonderful way to engage, unite, and differentiate when you have a mixed group of children with different ages or abilities.
The Homemade Play Dough Recipe Book is also full of activities that show you how to include counting, sums, fractions, and size in your play. The variety of materials we use brings lots of extra vocabulary into play, and you will see how play dough small worlds and role playing burst into lots of chat, questions, and speech development.
Combine the recipe book with Super Sensory Invitations To Play and you have the perfect beginner’s guide to sensory play and you’ll never run out of engaging ideas.
