What are sensory bags? They are Ziploc baggies filled with miscellaneous items such as marbles, glitter or whatever you have around the house and hair gel or dish soap to engage your child in exploring the sense of touch.
Sensory bags are not only a fun way to keep your child busy but also stimulate their senses. They also help children be more at ease with new sensations on hands and even feet. With infants, you can tape the bag to the floor and have a sensoryengaging tummy time.
Supplies:
Ziploc bags- any size you prefer
Duct tape
Dish soap or dollar store hair gel
Beads, Legos, shells, rocks- anything around the house.
How do you make a sensory bag?
Simply throw in the items you would like in your bag. Squirt either hair gel or dish soap in bag. Duct tape bag for extra security.
