Stop and Smell the Flowers!
The sense of smell is strongly linked to memory and plays an important role in Baby's early learning. Everything in Baby's world is new and needs to be explored and understood using all the senses. As Baby starts to remember how something feels, smells, tastes, looks or sounds, s/he begins to better understand the physical properties of theings around him/her. This is sensory learning.
Give Baby the opportunity to explore different types of smells. While taking a walk outside, enjoy a variety of smells from grass, leaves, and flowers to dirt and tree bark. The kitchen is full of wonderful smells. In the kitchen, encourage Baby to smell the aroma of cooking foods and spices.
