What are sensory toys?
As their apt name suggests, sensory toys are named for their stimulation of the five senses: sight, touch, taste, smell, and sound. Though fidget and sensory toys have fairly recently risen to popularity, they’ve been in our world for decades. Vintage childhood toy collectibles like yo-yos and Slinkys and arts and crafts like clay, and more are all sensory toys.
