Simple Sensory

Are you looking for some fun and easy sensory activities to do with your little ones at home? Look no further! Today, I'm going to share with you some simple yet engaging activities that you can do with your toddlers to help them explore and develop their senses.

First up, we have the classic sensory bin. It's super easy to make - just grab a large container, fill it with a sensory material of your choice (rice, beans, pasta, etc.), and toss in some fun toys or objects for your toddler to discover and play with. Not only does this activity engage their sense of touch, but it also encourages imaginative play and fine motor development.

Next, we have a fun and messy activity - painting with food! Use items such as pudding, yogurt, or even pureed fruits and vegetables as paint. This activity engages the sense of touch and taste while also allowing your child to be creative and have fun!

Finally, we have a simple activity that engages the sense of smell - creating a DIY scented playdough. All you need is flour, salt, water, oil, and your choice of essential oils or extracts. Mix it all together and let your child knead, shape and play while enjoying the delightful scent.

These are just a few examples of easy sensory activities you can do with your toddler at home. Get creative, have fun, and enjoy some quality sensory playtime with your little one!
