Sensory play is awesome for kids. It is fun, and can be as simple or as complicated as you wish. I love to give my kids the tools they need to play, learn, and relax. This button sensory bag is easy to make and can serve several purposes.
The button sensory bag is perfect for quiet reflection time. I made this for Harper on one of those rough days when she needed a chance to unwind. As she got herself together we used this bag for sorting colors and shapes. Manipulating the buttons is awesome for fine motor practice.
Supplies Needed:
A zipper seal sandwich bag
Hair gel
Directions:
Place aout 1/4 cup of hair gel in a zipper seal bag.
Add glitter to the hair gel. I thought blue was a nice touch, but you can use whatever color you like.
Add assorted buttons.
Seal. If your child is young or has "rough hands" You might want to reinforce the edges and opening with duct tape.
Invite your child to explore the bag. Squish it, sort colors, or sort by sizes.
