Sensory Tubes

The Sensory Tubes are an essential resource for practitioners who want to inspire awe and wonder in the classroom. These large, clear cylinders are designed for multi-purpose use, from creating mesmerising sensory bottles with glitter and oil to conducting scientific experiments with solids and liquids. Their transparent nature provides an unobstructed view, allowing children to observe chemical reactions, movement, or material properties in a safe, contained environment. Each tube features a secure lid that prevents spills, making them suitable for even the youngest learners to handle and roll. By filling these tubes with different natural materials or colourful liquids, children develop their visual tracking skills and concentration. They serve as a perfect provocation for discussions about gravity, density, and light. Whether used in a dedicated sensory room or as part of a science investigation table, these tubes provide a clear window into the fascinating world of physical science and discovery.
