The tickit SiliSoft Sensory Set (Earth) is a food-grade silicone sensory toy set designed for children with SEND and sensory processing needs, suitable from 10 months of age. It brings together three different tactile and sensory experiences in an earth-toned colourway, giving children a calm, repeatable way to explore texture, sound, and movement with their hands.
Each piece offers something different. The zip pull toy has textured tentacles designed for pulling and tactile exploration, building grip strength alongside cause-and-effect understanding. The round stacking cups have holes in their base, so they can be used for counting and pouring as well as sensory stacking play. The curiosity ball has tactile panels and an internal ball element that produces sound as it moves, adding an auditory dimension to sensory exploration. All pieces are made from food-grade silicone and are dishwasher safe, making the set practical for daily home or classroom use.
For parents and home use
- Gives children a calming, screen-free sensory activity that combines touch, sound, and simple early counting play in one set.
- Three different sensory experiences in one set means children can find the piece that suits their mood, without needing several separate toys.
- Dishwasher-safe silicone makes it easy to keep clean, which matters for families with younger children who explore with their hands and mouths.
- Suitable from 10 months, so it can grow with a child from early sensory play through to older toddler and preschool use.
For schools
- Compact, durable pieces that can be shared across a class or kept in an individual pupil's sensory or calm-down box.
- The stacking cups add a simple counting and pouring element, giving staff a sensory resource that also supports early mathematical skills.
- Supports the sensory element of a graduated approach to SEND, giving staff a simple, low-cost tool to offer alongside other regulation strategies.
- Food-grade, dishwasher-safe silicone meets the practical hygiene needs of shared classroom or early years resources.
For children with SEND, combining tactile and auditory sensory input in one set can widen the range of regulation strategies available to them. The curiosity ball's sound element gives an extra sensory channel beyond touch alone, while the stacking cups link sensory play to early mathematical exploration, so the set can support more than one area of development at once.
Whether you are building a home sensory toolkit or adding to a classroom's SEND provision, the tickit SiliSoft Sensory Set (Earth) is a straightforward, easy-to-clean option worth considering.
