Sensory play is extremely important for growing children. It can stimulate their sense of touch, smell, taste, sight and hearing. It teaches children to explore and investigate what they're experiencing. It helps the brain to make stronger connections to sensory information and eliminate the information that is not useful.
Sensory information is not only useful for development, but also it can be beneficial for social skills and emotional support.
Our students have a wide range of needs. Our school has two learning support and two emotional support classrooms. Currently we do have a sensory room that promotes sensory play through physical activity, but we do not have non-physical sensory items. The Mold&Play Sand, water beads, and foam paints would be beneficial to our students, when they need emotion regulation or to share what they are experiencing.
