Heart Sensory Bin

Research shows that sensory play builds nerve connections in the brain’s pathways, which enables young children to complete more complex learning tasks.

Sensory play also supports language development, cognitive growth, fine and gross motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction.

Lastly, sensory play aids in developing and enhancing memory.

For this activity, we interacted with a variety of materials in this fun Heart Sensory Bin!

Using their hands, students manipulated the materials and had fun while doing so!

Fine Motor Hearts

Using beads, tweezers, and heart-shaped vases, we continued to hone our fine motor skills!

Using the tweezers helps your little ones continue their mastery of the pincer grasp, and placing the hearts into the vase encourages concentration, and hand eye coordination.

Young children often have difficulty in manipulating a variety of utensils required for fine motor control, but providing them with this variety helps improve awareness of their hand.
