Sensory Arbour (Light and Sound)

The Sensory Arbour is an immersive piece of outdoor sensory equipment, combining colourful visual stimulation with musical chimes to create an engaging space for children to explore.

As children step beneath the multi-coloured polycarbonate roof and sides, changing light and vibrant colours create an inviting visual experience. They can explore the musical chimes, listening to different sounds and creating their own melodies as they play. Alongside the bright colours, these interactive elements encourage colour recognition, memory skills and an interest in music.

Artificial grass adds another tactile element to the experience, giving children a contrasting surface to discover as they move through the arbour. With opportunities to look, listen, touch and create, it becomes a place where children can explore sensory experiences at their own pace.

The inclusive, wheelchair-friendly design makes the Sensory Arbour an accessible addition to playgrounds, sensory gardens and outdoor learning spaces. It can provide a welcoming place for discovery while also offering children a quieter environment to pause, reset and engage positively with their surroundings.

Bringing light, sound and tactile exploration together, the Sensory Arbour offers a versatile sensory space where children can discover new experiences, develop skills and enjoy open-ended outdoor play.
