Incorporating the sense of smell can help children learn, according to an article in the Huffington Post Feb 5, 2010 by Margaret Hyde.
Hyde is the author of the children's book series "Mo's Nose" that incorporates scent into reading and learning.
“Researching and creating these scent-filled adventures, I discovered that the sense of smell is a powerful and overlooked part of how we learn, experience and remember,” wrote Hyde. “Smells create ‘Proustian Memories,’ which are long-term memories that elicit strong emotional responses.”
