The Five Senses

Our five senses allow us to enjoy the world around us—the taste of our food, the sound of music, the beauty of a sunrise, the softness of a cat’s fur, and the fragrance of a rose. Children may recognize the importance of their senses, but they don’t often focus on them individually. This month we have created and gathered a multitude of games, activities, arts and crafts, and resources to help your child learn about each of the five senses. They will experiment with sound by making instruments, guess what’s inside a “feely” bag by using touch, investigate to find out why they can taste different flavors, and much more.
