Sensory Activities for Babies and Preschoolers

Puzzles and Playdough and cutouts, oh my!  momstown Mississauga moms and excited little ones met at The Creative Kids Place for one of our great sensory programs, Puzzles and Playdough. momstown supplied the puzzles, playdough and fun cookie cutter shapes, while the kids supplied the creativity!  Smiles and giggles flowed as they rolled and molded and flattened the playdough, and then used the cutter shapes to create some silly combinations.  



Some of the kids favourites were the red ducks, green stars and blue dogs!  We decided to sneak in some learning as well, and used the cutouts to help the kids with letter and number recognition.  Their imaginative little minds then took over, as they created some yummy pretend playdough snacks.  They were even generous enough to share with their mamas, allowing them to have a pretend taste too!  

The puzzles were also a big hit with both the toddlers and the babies in attendance.  The toddlers kept their little hands busy, working on their fine motor skills by piecing the puzzles together, while the babies focused on the bright colours and busy patterns.  


Our farm peg puzzle seemed to be the favourite of the day!  Puzzles and Playdough is just one of the many exciting monthly programs we offer through momstown Mississauga.  Why not join us next time? We’d love to see what your little one’s imagination can come up with!

Our membership is $45 for the year and includes all the events, crafts etc. You can purchase yours here or consider giving one as a gift for the holidays!
