Sensory Play Explorer Set

Is your little one already a fan of sensory play? Bundle and save with our Sensory Play Explorer Set, which includes everything you need to take play and learning to the next level. Thoughtfully created for curious explorers, it’s packed with creative tools and accessories to enhance sensory experiences, inspire imagination and deepen discovery through hands-on play.

Featuring our award-winning PlayTRAY and a full collection of our bestselling sensory tools, this set encourages children to scoop, pour, sift and experiment in endless ways — supporting problem-solving, coordination, fine motor, and STEM skills as they play independently, or alongside friends and family.

The PlayTRAY is crafted from premium-quality, white food-grade ABS plastic — sturdy, durable and designed to withstand years of play. The accompanying accessories are made from premium-quality, FDA food-grade silicone, which is soft, safe and easy for little hands to hold. Both the PlayTRAY and silicone accessories are BPA-free and phthalate-free, whilst our droppers are crafted from PC plastic for durability and strength, giving you peace of mind while your child plays.

The Sensory Play Explorer Set is the perfect choice for families looking to expand their creative play collection, or educators setting up sensory play invitations for groups and classrooms.

As parents and caregivers, it's important to provide a safe and stimulating environment for your child to play and learn in. The PlayTRAY is a great tool for encouraging creativity and exploration, but it's important to keep safety in mind. These guidelines are designed to help you ensure that your child is playing safely with the PlayTRAY, and that the contents of the tray are age-appropriate and suitable for your child. By following these guidelines, you can help ensure that your child is having fun while staying safe.

1. Always supervise your child while they are playing with the PlayTRAY. This will help ensure that they are safe and not putting anything in their mouth that they shouldn't be.

2. Consider the age appropriateness and suitability of the contents you are placing in the PlayTRAY for your child. Some items may be too small or too large for a young child, or may contain small parts that can be a choking hazard.

3. Check for any allergies your child may have before placing any contents in the PlayTRAY. Some children may be allergic to certain materials or substances, so it's important to know what to avoid.

4. Do not use sharp objects in the tray. These can be dangerous for children and can cause injury.

5. If your child is mouthing items, ensure that they are not a choking hazard. Any items that can fit through a toilet roll tube should be avoided.

6. Do not leave your child unattended by water. Water play is fun, but it can also be dangerous.

7. Clean the PlayTRAY and its contents regularly, to avoid the growth of bacteria, mold or other harmful microorganisms.

8. Avoid using any toxic materials, paints, dyes or other chemicals in the PlayTRAY.

9. Keep in mind that children develop at different rates and it is important to adjust the contents of the PlayTRAY accordingly.

10. Be mindful of the temperature of the contents in the PlayTRAY, especially if your child is likely to put the contents in their mouths.

11. Lastly, always encourage your child to play creatively and explore their environment in a safe way, and have fun!
