Thinking of ideas you can do with your toddler today?
Here is another fun and creative way of making something new with your bottled water container — A sensory bottle!
All you need are the following:
1. Small objects you can put in the bottle such as trinkets, buttons, dice, little foam
2. Glitters
3. Used plastic bottle with a cover
4. A sense of fun!
I coached Joshua in putting in the stuff. First, fill the bottle in half with water. Then I let my toddler put those little items in one by one. Then we pour in the blue glitters and continue putting more small items inside.
Once you have put enough fill the bottle with more water and close the tip with the bottle cover. Try putting upside down and downside up! See the items inside move from one end to another. The glitters under the light has that nice glittered touch!
It reminds me of those glittered ballpens I had in my grade school. I loved those water pens with glitters and little cute stuff floating back and forth!
Actually the one who enjoyed this the most after was my 7 month old Anna. Joshua continued with making a second bottle! It’s a great activity with wonderful creative sensory bottle!
