About Summers Sensory & Co

Summers Sensory & Co is a Montessori-inspired sensory resource brand supporting babies and toddlers through the early years of play, learning, and connection. Rooted in child-led, developmental practice, our resources use real-life imagery and open-ended activities to nurture independence, creativity, and calm. Designed with care for parents, carers, and educators, each product is grouped by developmental stage rather than strict age — because we believe every child grows at their own pace. From sensory play guides and themed activity booklets to flashcards and movement cards, everything we create encourages meaningful exploration through simple, purposeful play.

🌿 Our Developmental Stages

At Summers Sensory & Co, we believe play should grow with your child. That’s why our resources are grouped by developmental stage rather than strict age — because every child is unique, and so is their journey.

Here’s how we guide play through the early years:

👶 Snugglers (0–6 months)

For the tiniest of learners. These gentle activities support bonding, comfort, and early sensory exploration through light, sound, texture, and movement.

🐾 Crawlers (6–12 months)

Perfect for babies on the move! These activities promote curiosity and coordination, encouraging your little one to reach, roll, and explore their surroundings.

🚶‍♀️ Walkers (10–18 months)

Designed for little ones gaining confidence on their feet. These playful tasks support balance, gross motor skills, and active discovery.

🔍 Explorers (18–24 months)

Busy hands, curious minds. These activities support cause-and-effect thinking, problem-solving, and independent exploration.

🕵️ Investigators (24–36 months)

At this stage, toddlers are ready for imaginative storytelling, simple challenges, and cooperative play that builds early logic and creativity.

💡 Thinkers (36+ months)

For our deep thinkers and big dreamers. These activities encourage early STEM, communication, and open-ended play that supports preschool learning and beyond.

🌟 Whether your little one is just beginning their sensory journey or ready to dive deeper into creative learning, there’s something here for every stage of play.
