Making a sensory bin or activity doesn't have to be complicated. You can use simple objects and ingredients, literally anything you have on hand and just mix it up in a container and let your child explore. Trust me, your child will love it!
For those of you doing tot school or letter-of-the-week curriculum, or those looking for creative ideas, I have compiled a list of my favorite sensory activities for each letter of the alphabet. I hope they inspire you!
