My daughter loves playing with sensory bins and I enjoy her playing with them – they can keep her occupied for hours! I’m happy to admit that I can spend ages eyeing up gorgeous sensory bin ideas for toddlers on Pinterest but there’s one, ok two small issues with this. Firstly, I just don’t have the time to spend ages making intricate small world sensory bins because I have two small kids (and the aforementioned Pinterest addiction) and secondly, well, my toddler seriously couldn’t care less how long I’ve spend prepping something. She just wants to play and if it doesn’t take me half an hour to clean up then hey that’s much better for me. So with that in mind I’m today sharing 10 ideas that will only take you a few minutes to prep.
Paw Patrol Sensory Tub – switch in your kids favourite toys, this entertained my toddler for ages!
Two Ingredient Cloud Dough – let your kids help make it too!
Cookie cutters-my daughter was obsessed with this sensory bin for months!
Soil – add some jelly worms to it!
