Exclusive to MTA, these sponges come in 6 assorted bright colours - red, green, yellow, blue, purple, and orange - and are perfect for a wide range of painting, sorting, and sensory activities. Each sponge measures 12cm in diameter and 2cm in height, making them ideal for small hands to grip and explore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese round sponges are excellent for creating textured impressions on paper using paint, watercolours, or other craft liquids, encouraging children to experiment with pattern, shape, and pressure during art sessions. They also pair perfectly with the matching coloured plastic bowls (EC370), which makes for easy colour sorting and neat classroom organisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, these sponges are great companions to EnviroBLOX (EB100) activities, helping to minimise water use-simply wet and store in the matching bowls.
