10+ Fall Sensory Activities with Cinnamon

Shared by Mary Catherine Leave a comment

Today I’m spot-lighting fall sensory activities with cinnamon! Cinnamon always reminds me of fall and winter holidays spent with family and friends – pumpkin and sweet potato pie with my cousins, cinnamon and clove on the stove top, spiced teas and wines with friends. Scent seems to have a big link to memories for me. How about you – what does cinnamon make you think of?

I love including cinnamon in a variety of fall sensory activities for my students. I’ve noticed that the kiddos respond so well to scented sensory play, so I try to include a few in each month’s lesson plans. I think it’s because it adds another element to their play and learning. Like adults, scents can be linked to memories too. Below are 10 cinnamon-filled activities I’m going to try with my students soon!

Fall Sensory Materials

From the sounds of the crunching leaves and the feel of pumpkin guts in your hands to the smell of apples and cinnamon, fall is one of the best times of year to teach about the five senses. And there’s no better way to teach about the five senses than for the students to engage in activities that awaken each of the senses.

The list above is full of some great sensory activities based around cinnamon. But maybe you’re looking to create your own sensory lessons for your students. If so, I’ve created a list of some fall sensory materials to give you a bit of inspiration! Check it out below. I may get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.
