Younger children will enjoy exploring the feel and shape of the spheres or adding them to a treasure basket collection.
Older children can use them to experience the world around them in tinted colours and in weird and wonderful new angles. Discuss with your child their perception of their environment as light passes through the sphere to create different angles.
Enhance their vocabulary by talking about reflection and refraction of light. Combining spheres together creates new colours and hues; whilst using them with a Light Panel will further enhance the sensory experience of light and colour mixing.

Customer Reviews
My 15 month old loves these! You do have to be careful, they're made of acrylic but they can possibly break if thrown around. They look beautiful in the sunlight.
My 4 year old loves these and we play with them in so many ways. We've used them on her light table, in water, to look through and we've checked out the upside down reflections that appear inside the balls however my daughters favourite activity is to roll them down her garage. She absolutely loves this and they're big so she can't put them into her mouth.
My daughter initially chose these while I was shopping for other things, I bought them not really expecting much. They come in a really great padded box for storage and are excellent quality like everything else we have received so far. They work really well with the sensory tables and are really interesting looking through all the different colours. They are really robust and super tactile,
