As you know, I am a lover of sensory play. I also believe children are never too young for sensory play. The more senses engaged in an activity the better.
I made a sensory board for 2.0 today. Lots of colours for sight, textures for touch, some of them made noises for sound (bubble wrap is crinkly and the bumpy cardboard makes noises when touched), and the feathers were eaten (though taste wasn't a sense I had in mind for the board).
Some children and babies do not cope well with too much stimulus so adjust the amount of items on your board to suit your child.
You can use anything as the base -cardboard (strong), an old tray I used an old tile that was spare.
A hot glue gun to glue it all down
Craft supplies (Sorry Lumpy I owe you a few top ups)
****** Even though the items are glued down, there is a chance they could still come off. Close parental supervision is required
