What Is Sensory Play?
Sensory play includes any activity that stimulates a child’s senses: touch, smell, taste, movement, balance, sight and hearing. Sensory play supports language development, cognitive growth, fine and gross motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction. Sensory bins are a wonderful way to engage your child in sensory play. A sensory bin is a tactile experience in a contained area such as a storage container. Mama of Joy sensory bins are packed with materials to facilitate exploration and naturally encourage children to play, create, investigate and explore.
How to Use Sensory Bins
Sensory bins offer the perfect open-ended child-driven play. When the materials inside sensory bins are offered to children without an expectation of a finished product, children use their imaginations and creativity to make sense of the materials in their own way. The magic of sensory play is in how it inspires creativity in our children.
Sensory bins are perfect for a variety of ages. Some kids may jump straight into a sensory bin and others may not. To help, you can sit and play with the child and the bin until they feel comfortable interacting with it on their own. You can start by talking about the habitat...
What Does Sensory Play Involve?
Whether your child is 6 months old or 4 years old, our sensory toys at Mama of Joy Sensory Play can help them navigate and learn about the world in a way that's fun and exciting! Sensory play involves:
Tactile play: Tactile play is when your child holds a sensory toy in their hand. They learn about different sensations, temperatures, and pressure.
Vestibular sensory play: Your child's vestibular system, located in the inner ear, is important for balance. Play such as jumping, swinging, and rolling around can help improve your child's development of balance.
Proprioception sensory play: Proprioception is your child's spacial awareness. Sensory play that involves jumping, pulling, and pushing can help your child develop and improve their spatial awareness.
Auditory sensory play: Sensory toys that involve different sounds can help your child's hearing development as they learn to differentiate between different noises.
Visual sensory play: Identifying patterns, colors, and motions are all forms of visual sensory play.
Olfactory and taste sensory play: Sensory toys and games that involve smell and taste can help your child develop their olfactory senses.
