5-Senses STEAM Activities for Preschoolers

Sensory activities encourage children to explore using their senses!

The senses, such as sight, touch, hearing, taste, and smell, are the building blocks of how young children investigate and begin to understand the world around them.

Sensory play that incorporates the different senses helps young learners develop fine motor skills (small muscle control) along with spatial awareness, creative thinking, exploring and discovering how things work, math skills, and helps relieve stress for children.
