Step 3: Add the Buildings and Firefighters Print out some fire station and building templates and cut them out. Glue them onto cardboard or foam board and place them on the kinetic sand. You can also print out some firefighter figures and place them around the buildings.

Step 4: Add the Fire Truck and Resin Pieces Next, add the resin pieces to the setup. Place the fire truck on the sand and add the resin flames around the buildings. You can also add the helmet and boots to make it more realistic.

Step 5: Create the Play Doh Fire and Water Now it's time to create the fire and water play doh. Mix red and yellow play doh to create the fire and blue play doh for the water. You can create small flames or large fires around the buildings and use the water play doh to put out the fire.

Step 6: Play and Learn! Your fire truck sensory play setup is now ready for action! Encourage your little ones to use their imagination and pretend to be firefighters. They can use the axe to break down doors, put out fires with water, and rescue people and animals from the burning buildings.
