    Creating Sensory Play at little or no cost

    Learn about sensory integration and how to use sensory play to stimulate or calm children


    by Wendy Usher

    This book contains hundreds of ideas using everyday items to create sensory play at home, at school or in play settings.

    The book considers how activities can be adapted to reflect individual children’s needs. Perhaps a child who does not like touching messy play would do so by wearing latex gloves or a child who has a visual impairment can feel and smell bubbles if the bubble solution contains a little perfume or essential oil.

    Each chapter offers simple yet effective ideas that easily be replicated in your own school or setting. For example try making glow in the dark paint or create a kaleidoscope from a cardboard tube and mirror card.

    Children will enjoy the activities and through sensory play will increase their social interaction, communication, cooperation, teamwork, planning, motor skills and dexterity.

    One of the benefits of sensory play is that you don’t need to finish something, the taking part is the play itself.

    Excellent for children who have low self-esteem and confidence, those children who need something to do with their feelings and emotions and those who find it hard to be with others.

    “I never knew I could make the Northern Lights by just using jelly and a torch! Amazing book, really looking forward to doing this activities with our children” – Teacher, Hammersmith

    “This book provides many ideas to create sensory play experiences considering touch, vision, taste, hearing and smell, and includes chapters on activities to support balance and body awareness. We encourage you to think imaginatively and to consider how sensory play can be incorporated into almost any activity using everyday items at little or no cost” Wendy Usher
