Summer Sensory Bins for Kids

These sensory bins have fun themes for the summer. They include butterflies and frogs, the ocean, patriotic, lemonade and more! 

Many of our Summer sensory bins include painted rocks. This is a really fun way to make a DIY toy that can be used in sensory play, as story stones, and as a fun art project.

What is a sensory bin?

A sensory bin is a bin or a container filled with materials meant to be explored in a hands-on manner by children. The most important aspect of a sensory bin is that is invites children to use the senses to learn. They should be able to touch the materials for sure. 

In many cases a sensory bin might invite the senses of taste and smell! You can make a sensory bin by adding a base such as dried rice or beans, sand and more! To this, add themed toys or fine motor tools to kick the learning up a notch.
