HEAR - Hearing is the ability to perceive sounds, allowing us to locate sound sources, communicate with others or recognize sounds. The materials in this category develop and stimulate hearing and communication. |

SEE - The visual sense is the perception of images, in which we distinguish between the central field of view - everything we see directly when we direct our eyes and the peripheral field of view (the zone outside the central field of vision), developing and stimulating the central and peripheral field of view, as well as visual tracking. |
|
SMELL - The sense of smell is the ability to perceive smells in the air. By smelling you can recog- nize an environment or activity and memories come up. The materials in this category give you the opportunity to develop the sense of smell and to use scents to recognize activity or material. |
|
FEEL - The sense of touch is the ability to perceive touch or pressure. Recognizing and discovering materi- als and textures through feeling. The materials in this category train and develop the sense of touch. |
|
TASTE - As soon as the taste buds in the mouth come into contact with a substance from one of the four basic tastes, the nerves transmit this observation to the brain. The taste center is located in the brains, which the taste may then recognize. This depends on whether we have tasted this taste before. The sense of touch of the mouth also plays a role in tasting. We call this the 'mouth feel' of a product. All kinds of nerve endings in the mouth determine how a product feels in the mouth. |

VESTIBULAR - Vestibular and proprioceptive senses are often overlooked in addition to the traditional 5 senses, but they are an essential part of our daily lives. The vestibular system (equilibrium sense) collects information about movement and balance. It tells our body whether we are standing upright or upside down, moving or standing still, oblique or straight. The direction and speed of our movement is also determined and whether objects move or stand still with respect to us. |
|
PROPRIOCEPTION - Vestibular and proprioceptive senses are often overlooked in addition to the traditional 5 senses, but they are an essential part of our daily lives. The proprioceptive perception (position sense) provides information about one's own body (position, movement, muscle tension, heaviness, etc.). This information provides body awareness. Our materials stimulate the proprioceptive sense whereby one becomes more aware of one's own body. |
