The Importance of Playing with A Child’s Sense of Smell!
A baby’s sense of smell is often taken for granted. From their child’s birth, parents are encouraged to engage kids in sensory play. They are told to show them new and novel sights, speak to them, play them music, give them opportunities to feel different textures and taste different tastes. 
But what about smelling? A good sniff is integral to how humans understand and learn about their world. So along with the black and white animal flash cards, and the songs and tickles, parents should also be playing with their kids understanding of the olfactory world.
They’re getting a sense of the mother’s smell from the inside, which is part of why they are recognizing the mother so well when they’re born and it takes longer to recognize the dad by his smell. The sense of smell can also be helpful in developing vocabulary. The reason for this is thanks in part to how ephemeral and ineffable smells are. You can train a child’s vocabulary by giving them a couple of different smells and asking them to describe them. But notes there aren’t any wrong answers. Kids can choose colors or images or metaphors.GYMBOREE PLAY & MUSIC HA NOI
