Recycle me
A sensory educational tray that invites sorting, observing, and understanding daily gestures related to the environment.
Through a concrete and fun activity, the child discovers waste sorting by manipulating everyday objects. They learn to classify them according to their type: compost, recycling, or waste, while developing their understanding of the world around them.
A wonderful way to raise awareness about environmental protection from a young age.
How to use in class or at home
The child observes the tokens and names the objects.
They then insert them into the correct bin according to their category: compost, recycling, or waste.
They can explain their choices, compare objects, and discuss their use in daily life.
The activity can be offered independently or guided.
