FAQs

What is a baby sensory board?

A baby sensory board is a freestanding visual toy designed to encourage babies to look, focus and explore high contrast patterns during play. Unlike handheld flashcards, the board stands independently for hands-free use.

How do you use a sensory board with a newborn?

Stand the board around 20–30cm from your baby's face during tummy time, nappy changes or floor play. Allow your baby to look at the patterns and explore at their own pace.

What makes a sensory board different from sensory cards?

Sensory boards stand upright on their own, making them ideal for hands-free play. Sensory cards are handheld and better suited to close-up interaction with a parent or carer.

Is the sensory board suitable for tummy time?

Yes. The freestanding design makes it an excellent tummy time activity, encouraging babies to lift their head and explore the high contrast patterns.

Can the sensory board be folded away?

Yes. The foldable design makes it easy to store or take with you, while the wipe-clean surface keeps it looking great after everyday use.
