Size: 22"H x 15"W, Weight: 9 lbs.

Perfect for classrooms, waiting areas, therapy centers, or sensory rooms, this visually stunning panel combines the beauty of an underwater scene with the fascinating effects of heat-sensitive technology.

How It Works:

The Seascape Heat Sensitive Wall Panel features a surface that reacts to body heat. Behind its durable, abrasion-resistant film lies a temperature-sensitive material that responds to the warmth of a touch, changing colors in a mesmerizing display.

When children place their hands, fingers, or even faces on the panel, they leave behind an impression in shifting shades of color, creating a temporary design that slowly fades as the surface cools back down to the ambient temperature.

The panel’s sensory experience not only entertains but also encourages children to learn cause-and-effect relationships, explore creativity, and develop fine motor skills as they experiment with how different touches produce different patterns.

Sensory and Educational Benefits:

This panel provides several important benefits:

• Sensory Engagement: The tactile and visual stimulation from the heat-sensitive material offers a multi-sensory experience that can calm children and foster focus. It’s especially beneficial for children with autism, sensory processing disorders, or those who require sensory input to stay engaged.

• Fine Motor Development: Encouraging kids to use their hands to make patterns or impressions helps refine their fine motor skills, improving hand-eye coordination and dexterity in a fun and engaging way.

• Creativity & Exploration: As children explore the panel, they can create temporary art with their handprints or experiment with how different parts of their body affect the colors. This fosters creativity and curiosity in a hands-on manner.

The Underwater Theme:

The panel's vibrant seascape design enhances the sensory experience, transporting children to an underwater world filled with friendly sea creatures like whales, turtles, fish, and coral.

The theme encourages imaginative play, where kids can picture themselves diving beneath the ocean surface as they create colorful impressions with their hands. The colorful marine life combined with the heat-sensitive technology creates a magical, calming effect that is sure to entertain and soothe.

Key Features:

• Durable Design: The panel is constructed from tough, abrasion-resistant materials that ensure it can withstand the active play of young children. Whether mounted in classrooms or waiting rooms, the Seascape Heat Sensitive Wall Panel is built to last.

• Temperature-Sensitive Technology: The color-changing surface is heat-sensitive, so every touch creates an immediate visual response. However, the effectiveness of the heat-sensitive material may vary with the room's temperature. If the panel seems slow to respond, the room might be too cold. If the panel appears red, green, or blue when not in use, the room might be too warm.

• Simple Setup and Maintenance: The panel is easy to install and maintain, making it a convenient choice for schools, therapy centers, and play areas. Cleaning is simple, and its durable surface stands up to frequent use.

Ideal for Educational Spaces:

Whether you’re a teacher, therapist, or parent, the Seascape Heat Sensitive Wall Panel offers an engaging and calming sensory experience that can transform any space. Perfect for use in sensory rooms, waiting areas, or early learning centers, this panel offers children a unique way to interact with their environment while learning and developing key skills.

Optimal performance temperature is between 72° - 77°

• The Heat Sensitive Play Panel contains a temperature-sensitive material behind a tough, abrasion-resistant film.
• When the surface is touched, it responds to body heat by changing color. If the Panel surface seems to respond sluggishly, the room temperature may be too cold.
• If the surface is red, green or blue when not in use the room temperature is too warm.

Mounting Location Guidelines:

Mount the Panel on an inside wall where the temperature is consistent. Do not mount the Play Panel where it will be in direct sunlight. This will affect responsiveness and shorten the life of the product.

Cleaning the Heat Sensitive Play Panel:

Use a soft damp cloth, general purpose cleaner or disinfectant spray to clean the Panel. Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. To remove crayon or other difficult stains we recommend De-Solv-lt or multi-purpose Goo Gone.
