Sensory toys for toddlers

Hi guys, just looking for some recommendations or advice please?

This year my family are taking part in Dunelm's Delivering Joy campaign and I have 3 tags for toddlers, all requesting sensory toys.

Unfortunately that's all I have to go off. Would anyone be so kind as to point me in the right direction for what to get them please? I have a few small bits but would like to add more.
So far I have:
Chunky crayons
Colouring book
Story book
Light up balls
Light up bath ducks

I don't have any specific ages or genders so would like to keep it quite neutral.

That's so lovely of you OP! My DD has complex needs and loves sensory toys. Some more ideas:

Touch and feel books
Light up toys like spinners
Large fidget spinners
Slinkys (plastic or metal)
Pop it toys
Tubs of slime / magnetic sand
Scented play dough
Space blankets / foil blankets
Sensory / glitter bottles filled with different things like beads, water, etc

If you type sensory toys on Amazon it should give you a good range of ideas too Smile

Ah what an amazing list! Thank you so much @kookit I'll be sure to add a mix of things you've suggested!

I'm only just entering the toddler stage with my own DS so still learning, he still loves his baby sensory bits so wasn't 100% on what would be appropriate.
Again, thank you so much and Merry Christmas to you and yours 🥰
