'Colour Explosion' Potion Party Pack
More than just potions
-
Sensory and physical development
As well as being fun, Potion Play® develops fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination without children even realising. Scooping and measuring powder, pouring liquids into a cauldron, picking up rocks with tongs, mixing and stirring their potion, all helps to build the muscles and focus the movements that are important in children's physical development… and all while they think they’re making magic!
-
Imagination and creative play
There is no right or wrong way to make a potion. Potion Play® is open-ended, creative play that allows children to explore and experiment, and it sparks the imagination. For younger children, the sensory joy of mixing, fizzing and watching cauldrons overflow is the adventure, but for older children, the play extends to become elaborate stories, invented worlds, and characters with spells and quests to complete.
-
Big feelings, playful solutions
Creating a potion with a ‘purpose’ can become a powerful tool for exploring and processing emotions. If a child is feeling anxious or is facing something daunting, making a bravery potion can help to turn a big feeling into something tangible and positive, and help to open up conversations. Potion Play® can help children practise positive affirmations and self-talk which is known to help with emotional well-being.
-
Screen-free play
The imaginative and interactive nature of Potion Play® keeps children engaged, and provides an appealing alternative to playing on screens. For older children, encouraging story-telling as part of the activity can hold their attention for even longer, and become something they want to return to and develop over time.
-
Every child, neurotypical or not
Potion Play® is popular with all children but can be especially valuable for neurodivergent children and those with sensory processing difficulties. The tactile, visual and sensory nature of potion play provides sensory input, and the motion of mixing and measuring can be calming for children who carry anxiety. It is also an activity that can be played with alongside other children, helping to develop social interaction.
