I created this activity using baby wipe lids and glued it to the cardboard.
Sensory boards are a fun way for babies to touch and feel different
materials all in one place.
Since there are a
variety of items to explore, babies have a great time exploring the objects
with their hands.
We can talk about the feeling of the textures and talk about the colours.
This activity is even more fun for older babies because they can play peek-a-boo with the objects. They love to open and close the lids. They enjoy touching all the materials.
The area I am developing through this activity is to stimulate children to explore and investigate. It also helps them to encourages problem
solving and develop their thinking skills.
EYLF Learning Outcomes:
4.2 - Children develop a range of skills and
processes such as problem solving, inquiry, experimentation, hypothesising,
researching, and investigating
National Quality Standard:
3.2.2 – Resources, materials and
equipment allow for multiple uses, are sufficient in number, and enable every
child to engage in play-based learning
Theorist link
Piaget’s theories - He believes that
children need to be able to see, touch, taste, smell, move and hear the things
they are learning about. This is called ‘concrete learning’.
