We’re going on a texture hunt – we're going to find some ‘scratchy’ things

What you need 

  • A bag or box to collect objects 

What to do 

  • Set off on an intrepid investigation into textures in your home (or outside).  
  • Choose one texture, for example fluffy, soft or scratchy.  
  • When you’ve agreed on a texture show your child an example, then go in search of more objects that feel the same.  
  • Collect any items you find in a bag or bucket.  
  • When you find something, talk about what it is and whether it feels the same as what you originally had. 
  • Once you've covered as much ground as you like, return to base camp and investigate all you have discovered. 
  • Set off on another quest looking for a different texture if your child is ready for more.
