Sensorial Material

Description: The sense organs are instruments that record the various inputs from the environment The sense organs are the link between the environment and the intellect. The 5 basic sense organs are the eyes (visual sense), ears (acoustic sense), tongue (gustatory sense), skin (tactile sense, thermic sense etc) and nose (olfactory sense). Other than this the muscles also register impressions of weight and shape. Our sensorial materials are accurately manufactured and elegantly finished to ensure that the child feels pleased to work with the materials.
