I put together a fun little Valentine's Day sensory bin for Rosie and Jewel the other day!
I included red beans, heart boxes, left over tulle from a recent tutu making project, heart shaped cookie cutters, foam heart shapes, red and pink pom poms, and pretty much anything else red or pink that I may have had on hand. I also scented the bin with a little rose essential oil.
Rosie quickly discovered that she could make shakers by putting a few beans in the heart boxes.
She was very proud of this discovery!
Rosie and Jewel had a few friends over and they loved the sensory bin too!
The best part- all the items used to create this sensory bin were purchased at The Dollar Tree!
We just love sensory play and sensory bins are a great way to discover and explore. You can make a sensory bin geared towards pretty much any theme. They can be easily rotated or frequently changed so that things stay exciting and new to little ones. We always have at least three different sensory bins in constant rotation.
Note- sensory bins often contain choking hazards. Please watch children closely or skip materials like beans until your child is older.

We share fun kids activities several times a week!
