Here is a simple game you can throw together for your little kids with stuff you probably have around the house already. I made a tactile memory game with balloons.
Fill balloons with various things that feel different.
Some things to use:
Rice
Flour
Cotton balls
Oats
Noodles
Dried beans
Wheat
Water
Fill two balloons with each item. I let my kids help me fill them, which was messy, but they liked it a lot! You could also fill them without their help and see if they can guess what is in each one. Then let the kids squish them and see how they feel. See if they can match up the pairs of balloons with the same things inside. It’s a great sensory activity!
