Did you know that we have five special helpers called senses? They help us learn about the world around us every day. Let’s find out more about them!
One of our senses is smell. We use our nose to smell things. Isn’t that fun?
With our nose, we can smell a pretty flower. It smells so sweet! We can also smell yummy food when it’s time to eat. Our nose helps us smell the shampoo in our hair and the fresh, clean air outside. Smelling is so much fun!
We have five senses that help us learn and grow:
Our five senses are like superpowers! They help us learn so much every day. We can see, smell, taste, hear, and touch to discover new things. Isn’t that amazing?
Remember, your senses are your special tools to explore the world. Use them to learn and have fun!
Sensory Scavenger Hunt: Go on a sensory scavenger hunt around your home or classroom. Use your senses to find items that match each sense. For example, find something that smells nice (like a flower or soap), something that feels soft (like a stuffed animal), or something that makes a sound (like a bell). Share what you find with your friends or family and talk about how each item uses a different sense.
Sense Matching Game: Create a matching game using pictures or objects that represent each of the five senses. For example, a picture of an ice cream cone for taste, a bell for hearing, or a flower for smell. Mix them up and try to match each item with the correct sense. You can play this game with a friend and see who can match them the fastest!
Five Senses Journal: Start a “Five Senses Journal” where you draw or write about one thing you experience with each of your senses every day. For example, draw a picture of a bird you heard singing or write about the taste of your favorite fruit. This will help you pay attention to how your senses help you explore the world around you.
