20+ Pages of Montessori Sensorial Sensory Activities for Kids

🌟 Wide age range

We worked hard to select Montessori-inspired sensorial activities for all ages. The minimum age listed for each activity is simply a starting point. We have provided ways to expand the works for all ages, including teenagers. If a starting age is in the single digits and you have a double-digit child, still give it a chance. You may be pleasantly surprised.

👁️ Engages children's heightened senses

Did you know children hear more sounds than adults? Their eyes perceive different colors and brightness than ours, their sense of touch is more acute, and their taste buds are still developing in ways that cause them to experience flavors differently. When children say something is too spicy, too loud, too itchy, or too bright, it genuinely is for them. Their bodies are developing and learning how to interact with the world. Everything is heightened, and this is even more true for children with special needs. In this pack, we have made sure to involve all the senses in a gentle and deliberate way. All works can be adapted to the level your child is at.

☕ Excellent for special needs, learning differences, and typical development

A multisensory education is not designed for one type of learner. If your child has learning differences or special needs, they can benefit from this pack. If your child does not, they can benefit too. You know your child best. Some works may push them to the edge of what they can comfortably tolerate, particularly those involving touch and taste. If your child struggles with a particular area, start slowly. It is perfectly fine to work through just one step per day, or to simply introduce a work and describe it over several days before diving in. This pack is a guide to help you curate your own journey at the pace that works best for your child and family.

🧠 Expands sensory awareness for parents too

As we grow older, we become less attuned to our senses. By engaging in these activities with your children, you may find yourself reconnecting with your own sensory experience. These are activities that can be genuinely enjoyed by adults. When combined with mindfulness practices, which the Montessori method actively encourages, adults can grow their own sensory awareness alongside their children. You are not only setting an example by participating, you are developing your own brain too.
