The babies had great fun today exploring our story trays in our sensory area.
Sensory play helps babies to develop curiosity about their environment and its sounds, shapes and smells. Exploratory play is also beneficial for their ever-evolving fine and gross motor skills, and also for developing self awareness, self confidence and self esteem. It encourages babies to discover their likes (and dislikes!) and form independent skills...
