Welcome to the Small Human Sensory Store... 

Sensory play includes activities that stimulates your smalls senses through touch, smell, taste, movement, balance, sight and hearing. Our smalls use their senses to explore and to learn. Even as adults we learn at our best and retain more information when we engage our senses.

​

Sensory Play is crucial to brain development – it helps to build nerve connections in the brain’s pathways. Not only is it fun it helps with learning tasks and supports cognitive growth, language development, gross motor skills, social interaction and problem solving skills.

​

Each month a new sensory kit activity will be posted for sale.

Each kit will be a different theme using wide range of materials for hours of play. I will also share tips and tricks through my Instagram stories of how to get more uses out of your kits.
