Toddler - Smelling Jars

In the Sensorial area of a Montessori classroom, there is a work called The Smelling Jars. These jars call to the child's sense of curiosity as they can smell through the small holes but cannot see inside of them. There are two sets of matching scents that the students must go through and match. This strengthens their sense of smell, or olfactory sense, while fostering concentration and memory.

Although a bizarre concept, the visualisation of the sources of smell provide an interesting documentary approach giving food smell - colour, paths, blending, volume. However, to consider the visualisation an animated documentary approach, it is lacking in sound signifiers.
