What a fun morning my friends in Green Room had today! The weather has been so beautiful and I've noticed all the beautiful birds coming out out to play, especially after our recent big storm. Inspired by this, I decided to create a sensory bin filled with bird seed, bright yellow toy chicks, driftwood, yellow curly ribbon, and various containers to open and close.
I created a tubing structure which was placed over the sensory bin so my friends could sift and pour through the holes and observe the seed drop down. Before long, my friends were in the sensory bin pouring seed over their own hands and feet...even in their hair!
A few of my friends even stretched out in the seed for a whole body experience...ha ha, so much fun! In addition to bird seed fun, I created a large board covered with contact paper (sticky side up) for my friends to do some sand painting with salt and pepper shakers filled with colorful sand.
From sticky contact paper, to smooth sand, to shakers that made lots of noise... we loved it!
Have a great week everyone!
