5 senses (at home)


The weather hasn't been warm enough to do our 5 senses in the park, like I'd prefer so we improvised a new game here at home with ordinary household objects. We focused mainly on touch because we had been talking about textures earlier that day.
This is what Lola had to say about each one:
1. Fuzzy lamb slipper: soft, squishy, furry
2. Stainless Steel water bottle: the metal part feels smooth, the plastic part is smooth in some parts, but bumpy in others
3. Pine needle branch from our dried out Christmas tree: rough and scratchy. Feels smoother when touching the branch in the directions that the pine needles grow, but scratchy when touched in the other direction.
4. Penny: Feels smooth around, but you can feel the texture of the engravings on the face.
5. Cat toy: ball with bell inside. Feels smooth, but textured also because of the holes.
