THE WHY...
Early in life, learning takes place through engaging our senses. Babies begin to explore the world around them immediately after they are born. Learning begins through taste, touch, sight, sound, and smell.
All children can benefit from further exploration and a purposeful approach to their sensory learning. Sensory bins are a wonderful way to achieve this right in your home or classroom. They are easy and inexpensive to create, can be stored and reused, and can benefit any child. Children from babies to as old as early teens enjoy playing and discovery through sensory tubs.
