Jewelry Sensory Tray

February 15, 2021 by Annette Kaminsky Leave a Comment

This heart-themed jewelry sensory tray goes beyond Valentine's Day with its cheery spring colors.

If you have washable heart-themed children’s jewelry pieces lying around or found some in a post-Valentine’s Day sale, they can have a go in a jewelry sensory tray. Add a few complimentary colored loose parts, and your early learners will be eager to explore the tray.


Loose Parts For The Tray

Heart-themed jewelry loose parts tray.

heart bracelets

color block silicone bracelets

rainbow heart rings

wiggly eye rings

rainbow heart erasers

foam flowers and hearts

gem hearts

flower eraser

buttons

This tray has loose parts in a variety of cheery colors, taking it beyond Valentine’s Day.


Making The Jewelry Sensory Tray

Heart-themed jewelry sensory tray that takes tactile exploration beyond Valentine's Day.

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.

How is the weather in your part of the world?
