Tactile Science

I found this great idea at Mrs Bainbridge’s Oasis and immediately printed it off for R. I set it up at his table and let him explore the materials.

We talked about the feeling of each item:

• Cotton wool ball – soft
• Sticky tape – sticky (before) and smooth (after)
• Sandpaper – rough
• Pasta – hard
• Dried beans – bumpy

Once R had explored each item, I said the name on each finger and he stuck the item on the right finger. Simple, educational and hands-on. Love it!!
