This week we held a baby sensory playdate for little nature lovers at Assiniboine Park. It was a lot of fun to collect the items that were used for our sensory.
We used:
- mud (a little messy)
- sand
- cattails/ bulrushes
- skunkweed
- dried leaves
- pine cones
- grass clippings
- water
- water bottle rattles with rocks inside
When we arrived at the park, we all gathered around in a nice shady spot and the kids dug right in!
It was neat to think of the ways that our senses were being used: the touch of the textures, the smell of the pinecones, the sound of the rocks, the different colours of the items - and even a little tasting!!

It was a great day at the park!
