Curious Cubs

One of our favorite play experiences with the little ones will be sensory play. It engages their senses and also builds their language skills.
Sensory play is effective when it's in group settings, where the facilitator engages children with questions and encourages sharing of ideas (for 2yo and above).

Use any recycled materials for sensory board. Range them from soft to rough textures.
Our favorite one will be the pebbles. Other than colour contrast and textures, White pebbles are cooler compared to the grey.

Share with us what materials you used to create sensory board.
