Sensory Bead Play Incorporating as many senses as you can into any play or learning is always the best way to retain information. The more senses that are engaged, the more connections are made in the brain to help us retrieve information later. Sensory play is built around this same concept. Let's look at how we can engage all senses. Sight - All sensory bins seem to be visually appealing! Sound - The sound of pouring and dumping can be so soothing! Sensory bins c...an also be loud, whisper quiet, or crunchy. Touch - The textures of sensory materials are one of the biggest motivations for kids to dig in (literally)! Taste - Especially with little ones, it is important to occasionally fill sensory bins with items that can or should be tasted Smell - Some materials smell great themselves but you can also add essential oils or spices to other sensory play experiences! #totspot #totspotla #totspotapp #mommyandme #mommyblogger #mommy #momsofinstagram #sensoryplay See more
