Eduspheres Tactile spheres set

Inside the varnished wooden box are six pairs of 45mm balls, each pair made from a different material. The tray measures 340 x 125 x 55 mm and keeps the twelve balls sorted, ready for children to feel, compare and match them up.

Each pair of sensory balls shares the same texture, so children can hunt for its partner using their fingers alone. Feeling for a match rather than just looking sharpens their sense of touch and turns the search into a focused little game.

The set is good for fine motor skills, sensory play and matching activities. Picking up, turning and pairing the balls works small hand muscles, while comparing textures builds the kind of careful attention that underpins early sorting and matching.

Yes. Alongside texture, children can group the balls by colour, so the set supports both colour matching and touch-based pairing. That gives you two ways to play, which keeps the activity fresh as a child grows more confident.

The tactile set leads with touch and paired textures, where the resin set explores colour through sight and the sound set works on hearing. All three share the same 45mm balls and varnished wooden box, so they sit well together as a sensory trio.

A single child can work through the set on their own, feeling for each texture pair at their own pace. It also suits two children taking turns, or an adult calling out a texture to find, so it flexes between solo and shared play.
