Ocean and Beach Sensory Bins

June 13, 2017 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

What do you do when you do not live near the ocean or beach? You make some Ocean and Beach Sensory Bins for your children to learn, play, and explore. Each of these sensory bins contains some element of either the ocean or beach while some contain both! Sensory bins are a great way to expose children to new topics without being to technical or seem like you are teaching.

Beach and Ocean Sensory Bins

Here’s a basic supply list for Sensory Bins:

Plastic bin or tray to house your items

Sensory material- sand, water, jello, or slime

Beach themed items-crabs, seagulls, shells,etc.

Ocean themed items– sharks, whales, octopus, mermaids, sea turtles, etc.

Once you know which theme you want to create then you can choose on of the sensory bins listed below. Gather all you items without your child knowing and maybe even throw in a Beach book or Ocean book or two for even more learning fun!

Over 20 Ocean and Beach Sensory Bins for your child to enjoy! #preschool #Summer

I have a tin of dominoes for each of my children that I bought at Dollar General a few years ago. I really liked the idea of the tins plus I have created some keepsake ornaments for each child. Today I am sharing with you a way to play with dominoes for your toddler or preschooler. I created a dominoes sensory bin for Lil’ Red to enjoy.
