Sensory bags for toddlers and preschoolers that are number or math themed.
Numbers are most definitely my oldest son's love language (see: hypernumeracy). And for many young hyperlexic kids, numbers become an interest or passion after the alphabet.
But, to be honest, it can be hard to find math and number activities that will appeal to these young number loving kids, especially when they're young toddlers.
That's where sensory bags come in handy!
While sensory bags are great for a variety of ages, the ideas included below are especially great for toddlers and preschoolers.
Preschool & Toddler Sensory Bags with Numbers
These sensory bags are not only mess free, but, often, the kids can help make them too.You can tape these sensory bags with numbers to the floor or table. Or switch things up completely and tape it to a vertical surface such as a wall or window. I'm a big fan of using sensory bags on the light table just because it really transforms the experience.
