Shredded Paper for Sensory Play

Shredded paper makes a great sensory experience for toddlers

I love it when common materials become these engaging play activities for children. This was the case when I received a delivery that was full of shredded paper! 

Normally I would have tossed it into the trash, however, without a thought Possum was instantly attracted to all these amazing white strands and quickly began to spread it around herself. She loved the crunchy sound it made between her fingers and watching how lightly it floated to the ground when it was thrown in the air. 

I realised that she had discovered an awesome sensory experience

So next time you receive a delivery with shredded paper, or you're able to get your hands on some, consider giving your toddler a chance to have a play with it (under close supervision of course).

TODDLERS & BABIES

There are so many sensory experiences you can give children. Here are a few that we have done in the past that might interest you.
