Wooden Sensory Tool Set

Scoop it. Pour it. Grab it. Transfer it. Explore it!

Our Wooden Sensory Tool Sets are the perfect companion to our Pour & Explore sensory mixes - adding another layer of hands-on exploration and open-ended play.

Using tools to scoop, pinch, grasp, transfer and pour sensory materials gives hands lots of opportunities to practise important skills while having fun.

Sensory tools can support:

• Fine motor development - strengthening the small muscles in the hands and fingers
• Hand-eye coordination - watching, reaching, scooping and transferring
• Pincer grasp - using fingers to pick up and manipulate smaller objects
• Grasp strength - holding and controlling different tools
• Bilateral coordination - encouraging both hands to work together
• Motor planning - figuring out how to move, scoop, pour and transfer materials
• Focus and attention - engaging in repetitive, purposeful play
• Independence - experimenting and discovering different ways to use each tool
• Imaginative play - tools can become part of whatever world you create
• Sensory exploration - experiencing different movements, textures, sounds and visual changes

There is no one right way to play! Scoop rice from one container to another, use tongs to hunt for hidden treasures, fill and empty cups, sort little pieces or invent an entirely new activity.

Pair your wooden tools with any of our Pour & Explore sensory mixes, use them with a sensory bin you already have at home, or add your own materials to make the experience your own.

Perfect for sensory bins, classrooms, playrooms, learning centres and open-ended play.

Please note: Tool styles and pieces may vary depending on the set. Adult supervision recommended. Always select sensory materials appropriate for the individual using them.
