My Project

More and more students are needing sensory input. Many of my students can stand at the sink and feel the water on their hands or play in the sand for hours. These items in the sensory table can get boring over time and also very messy.

These new exciting sensory table items will add new excitement to an area that is often played in but boring.

These new bright colored Kidfetti and water bead will give something colorful and fun to explore, The new scoops and fun funnel will add to the new fun.

As a teacher I am excited that these new materials will help minimize the occasional sand in the eye or hair, and wet sleeves and clothes from the water. Also feel these items will be easier to clean up since we currently have a carpeted classroom.
