Exploring Baby’s Senses
Early learning happens through the
senses. Babies’ ability to see, hear, smell, taste, and touch, as well as
their proprioceptive and vestibular senses, allow them to take in information
about the world. In class, we provide baby with a variety of sensory
experiences, with an emphasis on touch & sound. From hearing bees
buzz, to playing with bells, to feeling the ‘wind’ blown gently on their faces,
these activities engage baby’s senses. Since babies learn and remember
more when they engage their senses, these activities help them develop
cognitively, linguistically, socially, emotionally, physically, and creatively.
