Fun with snow at our Baby Sensory Exploration

We brought the outdoors in for our Baby Sensory Exploration this month.  This is a great way to have fun with snow without having to bundle our our little ones and face the wind chills.  We shovelled some snow into bins and brought them in.  We filled spray bottles with non-toxic paints and found some fun bath toys that we could use as scoops.

 

 
Our little ones used a lot of different senses exploring the snow.  They liked looking at all the different colours that spray paint created.
 
 
They learned about cause and effect.  They saw that when snow warms up, it begins to melt.


We used the bath toys to scoop up the snow and make "snow figures".


 But there favorite part had to be tasting the snow.  Taste is a very important aspect in our infants learning tools.  (No worries the paint is non-toxic and completely safe)
 


 
Looking forward to our next Baby Sensory group... you just never know what we'll be doing!

We would love to have you join us for our Baby Sensory Program. A fun way for kiddies to discover the world and moms to discover to use our imagination and everyday resources available!

Bobbing for Apples at momstown Milton Baby Sensory

Our Baby Sensory program is a very popular event here at momstown Milton!  These babies really know how to dig in and have fun.  They use all of their senses at this play group, and love to interact with one another while they learn.  Moms enjoy watching their little ones light up when they start to explore.

This week our babies had a splashing good time with colourful bobbing apples and bumpy fall gourds.  Bright orange, red and green was immediately interesting to their eyes, and once they discovered the water they REALLY started to have some fun!


Making the apples bob in the water with their hands and feet was a real thrill for these little ones!  Everyone loved using their mouths to explore the fruit and the gourds.  We wondered if the hard and bumpy gourds were soothing to sore gums because all of the babies had a great time with these colourful "teethers"!


Throwing the apples into the water to watch them splash quickly became their favorite game.  One of the little ones has a pretty good throwing arm, and he decided that throwing the apples across the room was even more fun!


As usual, our momstown Milton Baby Sensory group had a blast using their ears, eyes, hands, noses and mouths while exploring new and exciting things.  It is so great to see a baby light up when experiencing everyday objects in new ways.  Seeing an apple bobbing in water is a very simple activity but it opens the door to discovering new things about the world around us.  Join us at this fun group (but prepared to get messy!).
