More about Sensory Slime SEN Workshop
Wild Science offer unique Sensory Slime Workshop
Inclusive Slime Making Workshop Across the UK
Give children a fun, creative, and calming sensory experience with Wild Science's Sensory Slime SEN Workshop. Our interactive slime making workshop is specially designed for children and young people with Disabilities (SEND). Furthermore, it combines hands-on science with sensory exploration in a safe, inclusive environment.
Our experienced Nutty Professors guide every participant through creating their own personalised slime. Additionally, they introduce simple scientific concepts in an engaging and accessible way. Every session encourages creativity, curiosity, confidence, and sensory development through play.
Unlike venue-based activities, Wild Science delivers a mobile slime workshop directly to your venue. Consequently, we provide this service at schools, organisations, or community venues anywhere in the UK. You may be looking for a slime workshop for an SEN school, alternative provision, therapy group, or care home. Regardless of the setting, we bring the experience to you.
Our Slime Workshop for SEN & SEND Schools and Organisations
Every learner is different. Therefore, our slime workshop is fully adaptable for different ages, abilities, and support needs.
Our presenters work closely with teachers, SENCOs, carers, and support staff. This ensures every participant feels comfortable, included, and able to take part at their own pace.
Whether you are planning a school enrichment day, SEND activity, therapy session, holiday programme, or wellbeing event, we are here to help. Specifically, we tailor the workshop to suit your group.
What Happens During the Slime Making Workshop?
Participants create their own personalised slime using a variety of colours, textures, and sensory materials. While doing so, they discover the fascinating science behind polymers.
Throughout the slime making workshop, they experiment with different ingredients, including glitter, colour pigments, and foam beads, to create unique slime with different textures. They learn how each ingredient changes the slime and discover why polymers behave differently when mixed together.
Every participant takes home their own slime at the end of the session. This allows the learning and sensory play to continue long after the workshop finishes.
Sensory Learning Through Science
Our workshop combines science with sensory exploration to create a learning experience that is enjoyable, accessible, and memorable.
Children investigate different textures, observe how slime changes, and develop confidence through hands-on discovery. Activities also help strengthen fine motor skills, encourage communication, and support concentration while making science enjoyable.
Scientific concepts are explained using simple language so every participant can understand and enjoy the experience.
Designed for Children with SEN and SEND
Our workshop has been developed for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
It is particularly suitable for participants with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, learning disabilities, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and other additional learning needs. Every activity can be adapted to match individual abilities and support requirements, ensuring everyone can participate confidently.
We believe every child deserves the opportunity to enjoy science through meaningful, hands-on experiences.
Safe, Inclusive and Fully Supported
Safety is at the heart of every Wild Science workshop.
We use non-toxic slime ingredients and can provide hypoallergenic alternatives where required. Every activity is closely supervised by experienced presenters, ensuring participants can safely enjoy the workshop while exploring different sensory materials.
If anyone has allergies or additional support requirements, simply let us know before your booking so we can tailor the session accordingly.
