Garden Plans > 2024: Sensory Garden

About this Garden Plan

The touch section of a sensory garden for students with special needs is designed to engage their sense of touch through various textures and materials. It provides a hands-on experience that can be soothing and therapeutic, helping students to explore different tactile sensations in a controlled environment. This section will include plants with varying textures, like soft lamb's ear, rough tree bark, and smooth stones, as well as interactive elements like sand, water features, or textured pathways. The goal is to stimulate sensory development, improve fine motor skills, and provide a calming space for sensory regulation.
