Paleo sensory bin

A sensory bin is a great way for younger children to learn and explore through hands-on play. Sensory bins are super easy to create and might even give a tired parent a break as it can keep kids occupied for quite a while. 

Supplies needed:

  • A container (something with enough space for kids to get both hands into and sift through rice or sand and find objects. Suggestions: a large bowl, a plastic storage container, a sandbox, a sand table, etc.)
  • Dry beans, rice or sand
  • Items for kids to find such as small and large plastic dinosaur toys, small rocks, shells, plastic eggs and play moss. A variety of sizes, shapes and textures is best for this type on hands-on play.

Instructions:

Fill the container halfway with sand, dry beans or rice. Add in toys and other objects. Allow kids to dig in and play!
