The Five Senses

Jesse spent a week discovering his five senses. Here is a really cute poster game that I found on Sparklebox. I am quickly becoming addicted to sparklebox. Jesse got all of them right! Sight..we blindfolded ourselves and tried to get around the house while we couldn't see. There was a lot of laughing that day. We also put some items in a bag and tried to guess what they were without seeing them.

Hearing and smell. We spent a day outside listening to all sorts of sounds and tried to guess what they were and talked a little about people who could not hear or could not hear very well. Smell was interesting, we smelled all sorts of things and when I asked Jesse to name something he could smell he said "rotten garbage smells"..yes Jesse indeed it does.

Taste and Touch we explored all types of textures with our hands and tasted Jesse's safe foods and decided if they were sweet, salty or sour. Jesse then had to sort all the different pictures and put them with the correct sense and he got all of them right.
