Lego Jelly Bricks - Sensory Play

I am always looking for new sensory play ideas, I stumbled across jelly Lego cubes sometime ago on Pinterest and was racking my brains on how an earth you would make them. After talking with a friend I googled Lego jelly moulds and loads of different moulds came up. 

These Lego jelly moulds are from Amazon, costing £2.95.  I don't think that you would be able to stack them, but if you are working with students who like to smell, eat and put everything into their mouths, this would be a very safe and tasty sensory play option, great for exploring and learning about colours too !.

Not so bright after this student had been playing with them for a while, but they had lots of messy fun! ...

The Sensory Play Shop is a website that has been set up by the mother of a child who was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 3. Understanding the challenges that parents face raising a child with Autism and sensory processing disorders, she thought it would be a great idea to create this website alongside 'Sensory Play Box' to bring together some fun sensory items for children who face similar difficulties to her son. There are lots of wonderful resources to purchase on this website, which are refreshingly cheap for your children. Please follow the link below to have a look and support Chloe in her venture.
