The sensory material of the fabrics consists of a wooden box containing 12 pairs of fabrics cut out in equal sizes, of different colours and textures: wool, silk, linen, cotton, felt, pannolenci, nylon, velvet microfibre etc. The game consists of searching for the fabrics and having fun recognising those of the same colour and texture. The game consists of searching for the fabrics and having fun recognising, by touching them, those of the same quality and colour. The exercise stimulates the ability to control and maintain attention and concentration, helps in the coordination of movements, refines the sensory perception of touch and sight. Recognising different materials is a useful key to exploring the environment, getting to know the names of different types of fabrics and contributing to language development. Finding the same fabrics, also through colour, is useful to check the right combination, then you can focus your concentration exclusively on touch by carrying out the exercise with a blindfold.
Sensory material: made up of a set of objects 'grouped according to a certain physical quality' - weight, temperature, size, shape, colour, sound, etc. - Refining the perception of each sense encourages exploration and knowledge. From around three years of age. The box is made of birch wood and contains 6 pairs of fabrics, which are also different in colour. The senses, "windows on the world", accompany development. The game of coloured fabrics, through active manipulation, is useful for the education of touch and sight.
