Types of Sensory Toys for Students
When it's time to appeal to the senses, you can find a wide range of items designed for the task:
- Balls: Sensory balls use a variety of textures, lights, shapes and fillings to meet student desires.
- Liquid toys: These toys combine water and oil-like blobs of colored fluid that move when a child tips and flips it.
- Play-Doh® and putty: Putty makes for an excellent sensory tool that's also nontoxic and easy to clean and store. Some versions have hidden objects in the putty for kids to find. We also carry an assortment of tools, such as cutters and rollers.
- Sand: Sand is available in many different colors and offers a soothing tactile experience. It's also great for tracing and building activities — just be sure to put it in one of our sand trays for easy cleanup!
- Trays: Sensory trays are a great place for containing various sensory toys within an easy-to-clean location. Toss sand, water and toys in them without worries.
- Sound and hearing resources: Our sound-based toys include blocks that generate a unique sound when someone shakes them and have matching, colored notes on the sides.
- Sensory discs: These circular objects feature various tactile effects such as squishy beads, soft fabric or fuzzy tentacles. Students can squish and fold the discs and feel the different surfaces.
- Sensory stones: Sensory stones often feature textured or smooth surfaces, and some can even be stacked. Kids can hold and turn these stones over or play matching games with them.
- Sensory eggs: These little eggs are similar to sensory stones, but they are smooth and can help with sorting or matching skills. We even have some sensory sound eggs that play matching sounds for an auditory experience.
We also have a range of
other sensory toys for the classroom that don't fit neatly into the above categories, such as textured stacking blocks, fabric toys and sensory wristbands. With our wide inventory, you can find the toys that will work best with your students' unique needs.
