Animals

Animals are such a huge part of our life, not only are they cute and amazing, they can also represent friendship, companionship and unconditional love.

Animal sensory play involves setting up themed environments, often on a table, tray or playmat, this helps to stimulate a child's imagination whilst playing with animal figures and natural elements. Activities can include farm animal feeding , shearing, rounding up," washing clean animals, or exploring different textures like rice, sand, or water beads to mimic various habitats. These play activities promote fine motor skills, creativity, and learning about animals, their habitats, and their sounds. One of my great pleasures is listening to children mimic animal sounds.
