TOUCH CARDS

Our kids explore the world around them with all their senses, and one of the important areas of child development is familiarity with various tactile sensations. Sensory (or tactile) cards can be used in games and activities with children of all ages - starting from about 8 months, when they are already confidently sitting on their own, and up to 7-8 years.

What are touch cards used for?

Tactile cards are not just an interesting game; They develop motor skills, visual perception, attention, memory, perseverance, intuition, and help the baby become familiar with the properties of different objects and surfaces.

For the youngest children, sensory cards are an excellent educational tool.

Small cards are convenient for little hands to hold, and all kids, without exception, like to take out, lay out and sort through these “manuals.”

DIY tactile cards

The basis for tactile cards is usually cardboard. You can use old, unwanted cardboard boxes or buy cardboard specifically from an office supply store. In addition, felt can also serve as the basis for cards. The size of the cards is approximately 5x8 or 5x9 cm. Usually two identical sets are made for different games, for example, searching for cards that feel the same.
Tactile cards

What to stick on cardboard? The materials for creating your “author’s” tactile cards can be very diverse:

Any fabrics (silk, linen, velvet, raincoat fabric, fleece, knitwear, wool, batting, fabric with sequins, burlap and others);
leather, natural and artificial fur;
felt (you can stick it on cardboard or even use it as a base for sensory cards. In this case, make two sets of felt in different colors);
yarn, satin ribbon, braid;
cotton wool, synthetic winterizer;
velvet paper;
sandpaper;
corrugated cardboard;
Velcro or Velcro tape;
regular and thermal insulation foil;
scraps from rubber and household gloves;
feathers;
quartz sand (aquarium or colored from kits for children's creativity"Fresco"), shells, pebbles;
paraffin (you just need to carefully drip it from a burning candle);
matches, toothpicks;
wire, wires;
paper clips;
buttons (sewn to the card);
pasta, peas, beans, rice, pearl barley, buckwheat, semolina, millet;
sponges for washing dishes (divide the sponge into a hard and soft part and stick each on a separate card);
beads, beads, rhinestones;
walnut shells;
lids from baby food jars, pieces of bottle cap, can openers.

To keep the parts firmly in place, use superglue (for example, SuperMoment). Reliable adhesion of materials to cardboard is a prerequisite for the production of tactile cards. This is especially important for kids who love to try everything by tooth. Getting small things like pasta or beads into your mouth is a real danger if they are not glued firmly enough. Sand can be poured on top of regular PVA glue, fabric and fur can be secured with a stapler.

To make the cards look more fun, you can make them multi-colored. This will come in handy, for example, when spending “color weeks” with your child.
It is better to cover the edges of tactile cards with tape or masking tape so that they wear out less over time.
The form of application of the tactile elements of the card can be any to your taste. You can stick them in the form of letters and numbers. If desired, you can even make a whole alphabet or a complete set of numbers from 0 to 9.

Games with tactile cards

Starting from the age of one and a half years, you can try playing the game “Third Wheel” with your baby. Place three cards in front of him, two of which will be the same, and one will be different in color or feel. Everything is clear with the background color, but examples of different textures can be velvet or glossy paper, fabric and beads of the same color.
