When I was a preschool teacher I always enjoyed creating sensory bins to place outdoors during the Summer months. The children always loved the sensory play.

I think the fact sensory is different and not just an everyday toy car or a book really attracts a child’s attention. Today we have a fantastic Vegetable Garden Sensory Bin for the kids to enjoy.

It’s bright and colourful to get the kids’ attention, can be a great learning opportunity, and is great for the senses. Enjoy.
