Let’s Make It This Halloween Sensory Bag

Make your Jello Or Jelly according to the instructions on the package. Place it in the fridge and let it set for at least four hours.

Once the Jello has set, break it up a bit and place it into 1 gallon Ziploc bags. It will take about a half filled bag to make for good sensory play.

Cut out three large triangles and a mouth shape for your Jack-o-Lantern face. Place those pieces in the bag with the Jello.

Gently squeeze all of the air out of the Ziploc bag and secure it closed at the top with packing tape to eliminate accidental messes.

Let your child squish and play, making their Jack-o-Lantern face move around the bag.
