Sensory Bin Materials

Supplies Needed:

Hippity, Hoppity, Little Bunny Book
Easter Eggs (different sizes)
Mama Bunny and Baby Bunny
Rainbow toy
Bowl or Basket
2- 1lb Bags of White Rice
2 Tbsp White Vinegar
Pink & Green Food Coloring
Container (Any size you would like)

How to Make this Rabbit Sensory Bin

In a gallon size baggie, add one bag of rice, 5-6 drops of pink food coloring, and
1 tablespoon of vinegar. Close the bag, mix and squish with your hands until all the
coloring is coating the rice. Repeat step for the green rice. (Let the kiddos help with this one – it’s part of the fun!)

Lay each color of rice out on parchment paper to dry for about 10 minutes,
then add each color to your container.

Make certain that it dries or the colors will run and bleed into one another.

Add all your Easter items to the container. Bury some of the eggs so the kids
will have to dig for them.

Separate them as much as possible!

As you read the book, have the kids find where the next eggs will be.

They can use the scoop to dig around more or just use their hands instead.

The book reading makes it a really fun activity to do together as a family.

Whatever they find in the sensory bin, have them put into their own little Easter baskets.

Springtime Sensory Play

Spring offers endless opportunities for engaging sensory play that helps young children explore and understand the world around them.

Create a spring-themed sensory bin filled with dried beans or rice, pretty colored wooden or plastic eggs, bunnies, chicks, flowers, silk butterflies, small garden tools or other fun items that remind you of spring. It will encourage tactile exploration and fine motor development.

Take learning outdoors by letting little ones squish their hands in mud to make “mud pies,” feel the texture of fresh grass between their toes, or splash in spring rain puddles.

Planting seeds in soil provides a wonderful hands-on experience where children can dig, pour, and observe the lifecycle of plants firsthand.

You can also set up water play stations with flower petals floating in bins or freeze small plastic bugs in ice cubes for a cool melting activity.

These springtime sensory experiences not only stimulate all five senses but also foster curiosity, language development, and a deeper connection to nature during this season of growth and renewal.
