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.
