Spring Colored Craft Sand Sensory Bin
NON-FOOD SENSORY BIN FILLER WITH CRAFT SAND
Colored craft sand is easy to find in craft stores and small bags are inexpensive and simple to store and reuse! I thought purple, yellow and green would be a pretty combination for Spring. He is much happier with simple sensory bins so he can really get in and feel the filler.
I like to add a basket of tools on the side for him to choose based on interest. He enjoys mason jars, funnels, drink mix scoops, small strainers, and odd plastic containers! He asked to add the pony beads too!

Fun Mardis Gras colors too! I love this and had no idea you could get bigger bags of the sand for a raesonable price. Thanks for setting up such a fun resource!!!

I’ve not gotten adventurous enough to let my daughter play with sand yet. (Well, besides at the beach. ha ha) Looks like a lot of fun, though!

I would like to play in this sensory box! I used to have a zen garden and I loved raking the sand.
