The Art of DIY with Kids
Throughout the month of November, we spend our time talking about what it means to be grateful and how to express our gratitude. One of our favorite activities is to create a Thankful Tree in our home.
Our goal is to start our Thankful Tree on the first day of November each year!
Read moreHave you caught on yet? We love a good sensory bin!! Below is how our fall sensory bin turned spooky.
Sometimes all it takes is something super simple to change up a sensory bin! We had been playing with our corn sensory bin for many days at this point and my kids were still enjoying it. But with Halloween coming, I decided it was time for a simple change up! Something super simple can change the entire way in which they play and add so much more creativity. To turn the table spooky, all I did was add a few Halloween erasers and draped a spider web over top.
This week, we set up a Fall sensory bin. Honestly, you will learn pretty quickly that around here sensory bins are a fan favorite. We enjoy all aspects of the sensory bin; simply playing with the textures in the bin to scooping and sorting. The sensory bin fuels all kinds of creative thinking. Sometimes our sensory bin becomes a store, other times it is a construction site, you never know what the kiddos little minds will think of when you set it up!
As for me, I enjoy setting up the sensory bins and thinking of different ways to theme them. For example, this particular fall sensory bin is just one version of the various ways we could incorporate fall into the theme. Check out this post from earlier this month when we did a candy corn bin! And stay tuned, I have another sensory bin already in mind!
