Deep Spot Tray - Sponge Insert

The Deep Spot Tray – Sponge Insert is designed to fit inside the Deep Spot Tray, creating a soft tactile base for sensory tray activities and messy play exploration. The absorbent sponge surface is perfect for water play, bubbles and tactile discovery, encouraging children to squeeze, press and manipulate the material while exploring textures and movement.

Ideal for nurseries, SEN classrooms and early years learning environments, the sponge insert helps transform the Deep Spot Tray into a sensory friendly play space where children can experiment with water, foam and loose materials. As children interact with the sponge surface, they develop fine motor skills, hand strength and coordination through hands-on exploration.
