My mission
At Sincerely Sensory, my mission is to inspire children to learn, grow, and explore through the power of sensory play. As the sole owner and creator behind Sincerely Sensory, I am committed to offering children in our community engaging opportunities to experience the joy of discovery. Based on the West Coast in Cape Coral, Florida, I provide a range of sensory play products and host playdates, classes, and events designed to support the developmental needs of young minds. I believe in the importance of hands-on, meaningful experiences that promote learning, creativity, and connection.
Join me in bringing the transformative power of sensory exploration to children and helping them build a strong foundation for their future.
A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Janice, the proud owner and creator of Sincerely Sensory. As a former early childhood educator with over nine years of experience working with children from pre-K to third grade, I’ve always been passionate about helping kids learn and grow through creative, hands-on experiences. My journey into sensory play began when I saw the incredible impact it had on the children I taught—especially those with special needs. It was then that I realized just how transformative sensory play can be for every child.
Now, as a mom, I’m even more inspired to provide meaningful, engaging opportunities for young children to explore, create, and learn. Sincerely Sensory was born from my love of education and my desire to give other parents and caregivers the tools to support their kids’ development at home. With the support of my amazing partner, I’m excited to see this vision grow into a community that embraces the power of sensory exploration.
Though we’ve recently traded the Miami heat for the coastal breezes of Cape Coral, Florida, my passion for sensory play remains as strong as ever. I’m committed to offering high-quality, thoughtfully designed products, as well as playdates, classes, and events that nurture the growth and development of little ones here on the West Coast.
I believe every child deserves the chance to thrive through play, and I’m so grateful to be part of your family’s journey. Thank you for joining me on this exciting adventure!
Why Sensory Play is important
Sensory play is important for children because it allows them to engage with and explore their environment through their senses. The process of sensory play involves using different materials and textures to stimulate the senses, such as touch, sight, smell, taste, and sound.
Here are some reasons why sensory play is important for children:
- It helps with brain development: Sensory play helps to build neural pathways in the brain, which can lead to better cognitive skills, including problem-solving, memory, and attention span.
- It promotes creativity: Sensory play encourages children to use their imagination, as they explore and experiment with different materials and textures.
- It supports language development: Sensory play provides opportunities for children to learn new words, as they describe the different materials and sensations they are experiencing.
- It enhances social skills: Sensory play can be a great way for children to interact and play with others, which can help to develop their social skills, such as communication and cooperation.
- It helps with emotional regulation: Sensory play can be a calming and soothing experience for children, which can help to regulate their emotions and reduce stress and anxiety.
Overall, sensory play is a fun and engaging way for children to learn and develop important skills, while also having fun and being creative.
