It’s hard to believe that Easter is right around the corner. In just a few short weeks, we’ll be celebrating this wonderful holiday with our little kids.
Of course Easter also means the beginning of spring and let’s not forget about the inevitable sensory activities too. After all, what could be more fun than a huge bin full of colorful eggs, pom-poms, and buttons?

I’m loving how bright and colorful this sensory bin is. The little guy had a blast putting it together. And actually, we sort of made that an activity in and of itself. He helped me add the colorful bowls, plastic eggs, poms-poms, and buttons. Definitely lots of fun!
This is totally an open-ended activity that’s really meant for your little kids to explore. You could also add a few spoons for even more scooping, pouring, and dumping fun.

The little guy had a blast filling up the plastic eggs and then dumping the poms-poms and buttons into the colorful bowls.
You know, there was also lots of stacking and unstacking and filling up the colorful bowls and transferring pom-poms and buttons back and forth between them. Did I mention that some color sorting just kind of happened too?
