Sensory Play Activity
Sensory play is fun and beneficial for children, so you and your kid can have a great time with my DIY Winter sensory bin activity.
A sensory bin is filled with a variety of objects, so that children will engage their senses as they play.
There is no right or wrong way for kids to play, so they can be creative as they use their senses and imaginations.
Kids can see, touch and even hear the differences in each of the materials in the bin.
The pieces are small, so you’ll need to supervise your child. Of course, the activity is even more beneficial, when you share the experience.
This is a Winter themed bin, so the materials look snowy, icy and sparkly. Even the clear tray gives off an icy shimmer.
The textures range from fluffy cotton to smooth, cool glass gems, so each material looks and feels I unique.
I recommend covering your table with butcher paper, so that clean up is easier.
The little foam beads are a lot of fun, but they can be messy.
I hope you and your little enjoy the sensory experience of this Winter themed activity!
