Sensory Water Play for Your First Walker: A World of Exploration with SOHLS. My little one basically came out of the womb standing up—no joke! I think he must have gotten word that his mum had a shoe business. And now that we’re officially in the era of stand-up play only, we needed something to match his energy levels. Enter the ultimate sensory tray table from IKEA Australia! This simple but brilliant piece has quickly become our go-to for all things play, and honestly, the possibilities are endless.
What you need for this activity:
Sensory tray table
Balls
Water
Kitchen utensils (think spoons, strainers, and measuring cups)
A splash here, a scoop there—watching my little one explore different textures and movements has been incredible. Water play, in particular, has been a game-changer. Seeing those little hands stir, pour, and chase floating objects is not only adorable but also a great way to develop fine motor skills and coordination. Plus, it keeps them entertained for ages!
Of course, with water play comes slippery surfaces, and that’s where SOHLS shoes come in. Designed with non-slip soles, they provide the perfect grip for all those wobbly steps, preventing slips and tumbles while still allowing little feet to move naturally. Plus, they’re lightweight, making it easy for my little explorer to move effortlessly from one activity to the next. Whether he’s splashing around or running off to find the next adventure, SOHLS have got him covered (literally and figuratively!).
As my little one grows, so do his adventures, and having the right footwear makes all the difference. With SOHLS, he gets the freedom to explore safely, whether indoors, outdoors, wet, or dry. And with the sensory tray table in the mix, playtime just got a whole lot more fun.
If you’re looking for a great way to engage your active first walker, then give this a go!
