Little Friends Sensory Rattle Dinosaurs Big Bundle

Overview

• Soft dinosaur resources support sensory exploration, storytelling and fine motor development through varied tactile and sound features.

• This dinosaur bundle includes Steffy the Stegosaurus, Penelope the Triceratops, Hector the Brachiosaurus and Rex the Tyrannosaurus. All four of these dinosaur friends have a beautiful soft rattly bell noise from within, and feature soft fabrics, cute details and other sensory textures like velvet feel fabric and crinkly textures. They will make excellent companions on a range of adventures!

• Practitioners can offer these tactile dinosaur companions for small world dinosaur play, storytelling and open-ended exploration. Soft fabrics, velvet feel fabric, crinkly textures and gentle rattly bells give children varied ways to handle the characters, while narrative play supports communication and imaginative expression.

• For EYFS physical development, the varied surfaces and materials provide sensory exploration through touch and handling. In Understanding the World, the dinosaur small world resources create open-ended opportunities to investigate different textures and materials, allowing practitioners to adapt exploration to each child’s interests.

• The resources also support EYFS expressive arts and design through contrasting patterns, colours, tones and textures. Their sounds link with communication and language experiences involving music and sound, while the recognisable dinosaur characters encourage children to recognise and name objects during small world play.
