Did you know that there are 7 senses instead of 5? ⠀ ⠀
Each sensory system sends information to the brain to help us understand and perceive the world around us. ⠀
- Visual System – helps us to see and detect objects⠀
- Auditory System – responsible for hearing⠀
- Olfactory System – helps us to differentiate odors⠀
- Gustatory System – helps us to detect and perceive taste⠀
- Tactile System – helps detect touch, pressure, pain, temperature ⠀
- Vestibular system – sense of balance⠀
- Proprioceptive system – our intuitive sense of space and position⠀ ⠀
We develop these senses through the trial-and-error process of everyday living, playing, and moving.⠀
