Having Fun with Sensory Art
Sensory art projects are a fantastic way to engage kids while stimulating their senses and creativity. This fun and simple activity requires just a few supplies, making it accessible and easy to set up. It’s not only a sensory delight but also a great opportunity to build fine motor skills and explore textures and colors.

Supplies Needed:

  • Glue
  • Salt
  • Watercolor paint
  • Cup and water
  • Paper

Why it’s Great:
This activity is versatile and can be adapted for kids of various ages. Even younger children, like my 5-year-old, can complete this project independently, boosting their confidence and sense of accomplishment. It’s a creative and sensory-rich experience perfect for a rainy afternoon or a structured art session.

Below are the steps to guide you through this fun sensory experience, ensuring a mix of art, learning, and play!
