Sensory Toys for Babies
Sensory toys: toys with different textures, sounds, mirrors and contrasts, plus sensory balls, books and cloths.
Learning through the senses
In the first year a baby understands the world almost entirely through touch, sound and looking. Toys with contrasting textures, a mirror or a soft crinkle give that exploration something to work on. Every new sensation is a small piece of information.
What to choose in the first year
High-contrast black-and-white patterns suit the first three months, when colour vision is still developing. From four to six months, textures and sounds take over, because everything is being grasped and mouthed. Choose materials that can go in the wash, since all of it ends up in the mouth.
