「感官教材的重點，就在幫助小孩分辨、分類，以及將新訊息與已知的系統產生關聯。蒙特梭利博士相信這個過程是學習認知的開始，小孩透過收集感官所得的訊息，從事知性的工作，以幫助知能的發展。」——《一間蒙特梭利教室》Aline D. Wolf
孩子們口中常提到的粉紅塔、紅棒、音感鐘以及幾何嵌圖版等教具，皆屬於感官訓練，而這些教材可以藉由顏色、形狀及聲音的差異幫助小孩從中增進其感官的敏銳度。
The Montessori Sensorial Materials help the child to distinguish, to categorize, and to relate new information to what she already knows. Dr. Montessori believed that this process is the beginning of conscious knowledge. It is brought about by the intelligence working in a concentrated way on the impressions given by the senses. -"A Parents Guide to the Montessori Classroom", Aline D. Wolf
The Pink Tower, Red Rods, Bells, and Metal Insets often mentioned by the children are sensorial training. These materials can help the children develop their sensitivity with the difference in color, shape, and sound.
