Spring Sensory Bin

Spring is in the air or at least it is supposed to be… Last week we were hit with another 12+ inches of snow, but things are starting to warm back up finally. I am more than ready for warm weather and all things green and beautiful. Since the weather isn’t cooperating quite yet, I figured I could at least make a Spring Sensory Bin and pretend it is warmer out (ha).

Homework and Horseplay’s Spring Easter Bin

Sprig Easter Bin from H&H

To create this Spring Easter Bin I used:

  • Dried split peas
  • Green gems
  • Yellow and green foam flowers
  • Faux flowers
  • Butterflies
  • Pink water pitcher
  • Green ice cream scoop
  • Faux moss 
  • Flower cupcake wrapper
  • Pastel pom-poms

I love how the pink accents in this bin pops against the green split peas. I hope the girls I babysit will enjoy this spring sensory bin as much as my own children did years ago. Maybe by breaking out all things spring here in my house the weather will follow suit.

Helpful Hint:
Purchase a vinyl tablecloth to put on the floor under sensory bins. I have a rule that ALL sensory materials must stay on the tablecloth. This helps prevent a major mess since some sensory materials are quite small. When your child is done playing you can pick up the corners of the tablecloth and pour everything back into the bin. I also highly recommend using a bin with a lid for easier storage.

Thank you for checking out my Spring Sensory Bin…
