Making The Jewelry Sensory Tray
_______
Pick a tray large enough for a few children to play in.
Add a layer of rice. I feature glutinous rice. I love it because it is super white.
Spread the heart jewelry and complimentary colored loose parts in the tray. Invite your early learners to explore the tactile center.
This sensory tray idea also works for individual play. Just divide the supplies into a portion for each child and add them to smaller trays.
