Pastel Stars

Pastel Stars invites curious little hands to dip into a Coral Reef Mix of pastel-coloured, scented lentils. This 8oz tub is a rich canvas for open-ended play, turning every session into a mini adventure of discovery, texture, and imagination. Designed as a versatile learning aid, it pairs beautifully with our busy bags and with single pots of dough to create inviting, multi-sensory invitations to play.

What makes Pastel Stars stand out:

• Pastel-hued lentils with a subtle scent that enriches sensory exploration without overwhelming tiny noses.
• Colored with CE-tested paints and food coloring to achieve vibrant, lasting tones.
• Intended as a learning aid (loose parts) to support tactile play, language development, and early engineering ideas—used under parent supervision.
• Not CE tested as a finished product and not advised for children under three.
• All sensory pots are uncooked and raw; this is a learning tool, not a snack.
• 8oz tub provides ample quantity for multiple play sessions, inviting cooperative play or independent exploration.

Why families and educators choose Pastel Stars

• Seamlessly integrates with busy bags for on-the-go learning, classroom centers, or therapy-inspired activities.
• Offers a calm, visually appealing palette that enhances focus during structured activities or creative free play.

Practical use ideas

• Set up a color-sorting station: invite children to group lentils by shade, then compare counts across colors.
• Use as a storytelling prompt: “What sea creatures might live among these pastel grains?” to spark language and imaginative play.
• Create a tactile tray for sensory exploration: mix with water-safe scoops, small bowls, and tweezers for fine-motor challenges.
• Pair with dough activities: pour into dough-based invitations to encourage creative construction and coordination.

Safety, care, and storage
