What are sensory attributes?

Sensory attributes are the features we can notice using our senses, like seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, or even smelling something.

Imagine you’re holding a red apple in your hand. The color is red, which is what your eyes see. That’s one sensory attribute. If you bite into it and feel it's crunchy inside, that’s another, the texture, which your mouth feels. Maybe it tastes sweet too, that's a taste attribute.

Now think of your favorite toy. When you touch it, is it smooth or rough? That's a touch sensory attribute. If it makes a ding sound when you hit it with another toy, that’s a sound attribute.

Sometimes, like when you smell cookies baking in the kitchen, you’re using your smell, that's also a sensory attribute!

So, every time you use your senses to notice something about an object or food, you're discovering its sensory attributes. It's just like learning what makes things feel, look, sound, taste, or smell the way they do!
