Ice Cube Jump and Smash
We’ve been sharing some fun sensory play activities recently, part of our January Occupational Therapy calendar. The proprioception and vestibular activities linked up in the free calendar are sure to provide sensory experiences and input that will keep your child moving all winter long. Hey, you can do most of these activities in warmer weather too, so be sure to save this one for hot summer days!
This Ice Cube Proprioception Jump and Smash activity will provide movement and heavy work that can help with regulation of sensory seekers. Try making these bright and vividly colored ice cubes and playing with sensory input today!
The movement of jumping and hopping adds a vestibular activity component to this fun activity.
