Easter sensory play activities

Children learn by exploring the world through their senses and anything we can do to provide them with interesting sensory play is great for their development. You might be inspired by the colours of the season, or the sights and sounds you see around you at the time of year.

I often use the changing of the season and the festivals of the year as a great excuse to think up some different, fun, sensory play ideas. It’s a good prompt to me to keep varying the materials we have on offer to play with, to keep promoting lots of exploration and discovery.

Here’s a lovely collection of Easter sensory play activities that you can use to give your baby or toddler some great new experiences.
