How this product aligns with the EYLF
Supporting play-based learning and inquiry
The Sensotec Infinity Mirror Panel invites children to engage in open-ended exploration and discovery through its interactive features. As children manipulate the controls to change colours, patterns, and sounds, they are encouraged to experiment, ask questions, and investigate the effects of their actions, fostering a sense of curiosity and inquiry.
Supporting creativity and self-expression
This multisensory wall panel provides a platform for children to express their creativity through visual and auditory experiences. By allowing children to control the visual patterns and sound effects, they can create their own unique sensory environments, promoting imaginative play and personal expression.
