Loose parts in sensory play offer numerous benefits for children's development:
1. **Creativity and Imagination**: They encourage open-ended play, allowing children to use their imagination to transform objects in various ways.
2. **Problem Solving**: They promote critical thinking as children figure out how to use the materials in different ways and solve challenges they encounter.
3. **Fine Motor Skills**: Handling and manipulating small objects helps develop fine motor skills, essential for tasks like writing, drawing, and buttoning clothes.
4. **Sensory Exploration**: Different textures, shapes, and materials provide a rich sensory experience, stimulating touch, sight, and sometimes even smell and sound.
5. **Social Interaction**: Loose parts can be used collaboratively, fostering cooperation, communication, and negotiation skills when children play together.
6. **Language Development**: Children often engage in conversation about what they're doing with the materials, which supports language development and expands their vocabulary.
7. **Mathematical Concepts**: Sorting, counting, and arranging loose parts can introduce basic mathematical concepts like numbers, shapes, and patterns.
8. **Risk Assessment**: Children learn to assess risk and make judgments about the materials they're using, promoting a sense of responsibility.
9. **Sensory Regulation**: Engaging with various textures and materials can help some children regulate their sensory systems, which is especially beneficial for those with sensory processing challenges.
10. **Independence and Confidence**: The autonomy to choose and manipulate materials builds confidence and a sense of independence in children.
11. **Longer Engagement**: Loose parts often lead to more extended periods of play compared to toys with predefined purposes, as they offer endless possibilities for exploration and creativity.
Overall, incorporating loose parts into sensory play environments supports holistic child development and encourages a love for exploration and learning.

This is the cutest little bat tray! This was the perfect addition to our spooky play and night sky learning activities. It’s also the perfect size to fit in the Inspire Play Tray.
This pumpkin tray is gorgeous! I love that this tray is beautiful by itself but can also hold sensory filler and still look beautiful. We’ve used this tray for sensory play, homeschool lessons, Halloween charcuterie, and Autumn decor. The perfect Fall tray!
If you’re looking for one tray that’s able to be used for multiple seasons, this is it! We’ve used this tray every season since we received it and love how versatile it is. If your budget only allows for a few trays you want this to be one of them!
We love this pine tree tray! It’s one of our most used trays for both sensory play and homeschool lessons. It’s the perfect tray to use for Christmas activities too. You can’t go wrong with this tree tray!
Love this practical resource when bringing school work off the page. No age limit on it either. From 5 years - 18 years old, we're always using this for presentations and school work.
These are such a hit in our homeschool house. I have kiddos that are very tactile in their learning. When paper doesn't cut it, I bring these out. You can fill them up with sensory fillers, trace them with your fingers, put kinetic sand in them or even play dough. So many options! The more senses you can engage when learning, the more that information sticks. These help us with that! I recommend getting 2 sets (or even an extra set of vowels) if you are practicing spelling so you have enough letters. :) Happy Learning!
This is one of our most used products. We love it for counting, pattern sequencing and color sorting!
This tray has been very used in our homeschool lessons. From working on spelling, to read it, build it, write it letter practice and even using it for guessing work. Perfect for your little learners!
One thing I love is a product I can use in so many different ways! This tray has so many use, cauldron, fish bowl, snow globe...so many uses. This is a favorite in our house!
My toddler loves busses, so this tray was a no brainer! the moment I showed it to him, his face lit up! We have used this in back to school play, vehicle play, etc. The possibilities are endless. If you have a bus loving kiddo this tray is a must!
These felt penguins are adorable! They are a cute addition to our sensory play. We honestly can’t get enough. Great quality too! Highly recommend!
This small snowflake plate is absolutely beautiful. The detailing, the smoothness (who knew wood can be buttery smooth?!) and the quality is amazing. Such a fun addition to have as part of our play and learning. Highly recommend!
We love this felt octopus! It’s really cute! Great for play set ups and letter/discovery baskets! You can also add it to a sensory bin.
