How this product aligns with the EYLF

Supporting play-based learning and inquiry
The Sensory Colour Exploration Pack provides a variety of tactile and visual resources that encourage children to engage in sensory play. Through exploration and experimentation with colours and textures, children can develop their curiosity and inquiry skills, fostering a deeper understanding of their environment and the concepts of colour and light.

Encouraging wellbeing, comfort, and independence
The resources in this pack support children in developing self-regulation and focus during play. By engaging with sensory materials, children can find comfort and a sense of calm, which is essential for their emotional wellbeing and independence in managing their own learning experiences.
