It's my favorite season of all but always seems to go by too quickly. This printable is designed to use three senses: eyes for sight, nose for smell, and ears for hearing.

Shaving Cream Sensory Play

by Angela Thayer 1 Comment

We took a break from Halloween crafts to enjoy some fun sensory activities! We made a gel sensory bag. I took aloe vera and hair gel and dumped it in a large freezer bag. I added some food coloring to make it orange and then the kids loved playing with it and squeezing it. Troy practiced writing some letters with it, and Wes just liked the feel of it. Then we played with shaving cream. This was pretty fun! The steps are outlined below in the picture. So simple, and cheap, and fun for the … [Read more...]
