Baby sensory board {DIY}
A baby sensory board is a fun, hands-on activity to watch your baby learn and explore the sense of touch and tactile differences!
I found a some hard and soft items and hot-glued them to some cardboard — I had to find white cardboard because the brown just wasn’t as pretty. I tried to stick with “girly” too because May doesn’t have enough pink and girly things in the house : ).
Ensure that you are with your baby at all times as some of these items are choke hazards, and though they are glued on, babies can work miracles!
I assembled my supplies.
And got to gluing!
And here she is with her boards! She is very serious!
She loves them, but again, I am always with her while she is playing, when they are not, they are set out of her reach!

Very cute idea! Now baby can experience textures without the chance to swallow things! Would love for you to share this at Mom’s Library this Wednesday!
Thanks Ashley!! — I definitely will :)
I am a speech and language therapist and we often use this with children and adults with/without sensory difficulties. It’s such a nice thing that you have done here introducing the sensory board to you’re child. Well done. :)
Thanks, Kavya, it’s great to know there are long-term benefits to sensorial exploration! Thanks for visiting.
Great idea! Pinned this!

Really cool idea! I haven’t seen anything like that before.
This is a wonderful idea, Amy! I’ve never thought of doing anything like this before. Might give it a go sometime when Edward is a little older and can sit up.
