  1. I love all of these ideas...definitely will have to try them with the kiddo! He'll especially get a kick out of having socks on his hands.

  2. What a great post with so many resources and ideas. I love it. We often use sensory bins to explore all five senses and this one is our absolute favorite. http://jennifischer.blogspot.com/2012/07/bees-sensory-bin-honey-painting.html
