Senses & Textures

EYFS, KS 1; Early Years, First Stage KS 1.

Ages 3 - 7

DURATION: 45 mins - 55 mins

OVERVIEW:  We’re going to use our senses to meet our animal friends (except taste, please do not taste our animals! (yuck!)) and find outhow they use their senses? How do they look, sound, smell and what they feel like?

Children get to explore and understand how animals use their senses within their habitats. How do animals perceive their surroundings and how well are their senses adapted to them? Children make hands-on discoveries of textures and senses in an animal handling experience that is suitable for everyone from new intake to SEN classes.
