Sensory activities at Woy Woy

Children in the early intervention program at Woy Woy Public School have been enjoying sensory activities.

This form of play was important as some children had difficulty in using the information that was collected through their senses in their daily lives, according to acting principal Mr Dan Betts.

"Most people are born with the ability to take in sensory information," he said.

"For children with sensory processing difficulties they are unable to organise sensory signals and are unable to respond appropriately.

"These activities help children develop their sensory skills in a safe and supportive environment."
