Tic-Tac-Play: Personalized Sensory Kits, Play Dough Kits & Party Favors

Our Play Journey

I’m May—former Kindergarten teacher, certified Speech and Language Pathologist Assistant (SLPA), and mama to four wild, wonderful boys! Yep, you read that right—four boys. My days are filled with constant activity (and a lot of snacks), and like so many parents, I was always on the hunt for ways to keep my kids entertained, learning, and happy.

Enter: sensory play!

I discovered this magical world when I needed something that would hold my boys’ attention while juggling the chaos of mom life. And let me tell you, sensory play was a total game-changer! It was like flipping a switch—suddenly, my boys were creating, imagining, and exploring, all while developing crucial skills without even realizing it. My love for this type of open-ended, hands-on play grew, and I started designing sensory kits for them that provided hours of independent play and creative discovery.

As both a mom and an SLPA, I know firsthand how sensory play can spark cognitive growth, language development, and social skills—and, let’s be honest, it also gives parents a well-deserved break! That’s why I launched Tic-Tac-Play—to share these benefits with families everywhere. Each kit is thoughtfully crafted to inspire wonder, ignite imaginations, and give your kiddos an enriching, screen-free play experience that’s fun and educational.

At Tic-Tac-Play, we believe that learning should feel like an adventure—and every kit is packed with sensory surprises that make playtime magical. And the best part? We’ve taken all the guesswork out of it for you. You won’t need to spend hours gathering supplies or brainstorming ideas—we’ve done all that! Simply unpack, play, and watch the magic happen!

I can’t wait for you to experience the joy of sensory play and see your little ones light up with excitement as they dive into the world of Tic-Tac-Play!
