Description :
Developing strong senses of smell helps children to get familiar with several different flavours and helps them distinguish between them.
Smells help the children recognize certain fragrances. The ability to smell is important, as it is closely linked to the ability to taste.
Smells can also evoke memories, and smells can calm or excite us.
The LKG students of The HDFC School, Bengaluru, were thoroughly engaged while learning about their olfactory senses during the topic ‘Our Five Senses’.
This activity consists of the children smelling various jars. The teachers filled each jar with things that have very distinct fragrances
such as clove oil, lemon, coffee, talcum powder, Dettol and Vanilla extract. They explored all the smells and scents. They had fun while
smelling the smelly jars full of different and unique smells.
This activity helped the children nurture an awareness and understanding of their sense of smell.
