Down Right Busy

03/25/2021

It's been a while, so I'll take some time to reintroduce myself😁. I'm a wife to an amazing hard working man, mother to a silly 3yr old and busy 1yr old that was blessed with an extra chromosome 💙💛, a dog mom to a lazy pitbull and a friend to a few special people.

I love creating sensory bins for my daughter and now for my son. My bins are usually messy with different textures, colors and educational items to keep learning while playing. Sensory bins are a good way to keep my daughter and I communicating and learning about different animals, different colors, letters and so much more. It hasn't been till recently that I wanted to share some of the sensory bins to those who are interested. So I have posted a few for purchase. Since I am a stay at home mom, I have many duties that require my attention
Mostly trying to stay sane with two tiny humans and not burn the house down before my husband gets home from work. Therefore, I am not always on my page and I don't have many creations to sell. But anyone who is interested in a bin may message me. I don't mind whipping something up for an interested parent. Please keep in mind that my bins are created for an adult and child to help build a relationship while playing and communicating. A lot of my items are small, so I highly recommend adult supervision. They are also messy, so I suggest playing outside with them or over an old tablecloth or bed sheet. Or just embrace the mess and encourage your child to help clean up after playing.

Thank you for my liking my page and if you have any thoughts or ideas on bins you'd like to see, just send me a message😊

Stay safe, drink water, take your Vitamin D☀️ and Vitamin C🍊 and don't forget your coffee is in the microwave ❤

Arctic Sensory play kits $30 with free shipping
(Please 2-3days to prepare package. I will notify you when I have dropped it off at the post office. Also keep in mind because of Covid, USPS is taking longer to deliver packages.)

Sensory Play kits are open ended activities that can be used for loose play or in a bin. This kit comes with a variety of sensory fillers including dyed rice, soft glittery snow, felt snow and blue playdough with a few rocks and gems. Also included is a ten frame chart, glass jar and scoop. Ten frame charts helps a child to understand counting, place value, and much more. Children are learning fine motor skills, sorting, color recognition, and patterns while playing.
Kit also encourages open conversation about cold weather animals, winter trees and animal identification which leads to more open conversation.

Warning: small items. Not recommended for 3years and under or any child that still put items into mouth. Supervision is recommended.

Sellets tips: Sensory Bins are messy! Placing a tablecloth underneath the play area helps with cleaning up smaller items (rice, loose snow, sand).
My bins are pictured in a wood tray but any tray will work. We actually do not use wood trays. I place them in a rectangle baking pan with high sides unless it's being used then I just use a regular baking sheet tray with low sides.

This kit includes:
3 Arctic animals
Felt snow
Loose glitter snow
Blue dyed rice
Blue gems
Playdough
Rocks
1 small tree
Snow flakes
Small wood numbers
Pipe cleaner with beads
Ten frame
Glass jar and scoop

Hello all, I hope this post finds you safe and healthy❤ It's been awhile since I've made any activity on my page. So I'm here to share what we have been up to.

I haven't made any new busy bags to sell but I have put together a couple sensory kits. I do sensory bins all the time for my kids but very recent have I decided to try to sell a couple. So if you are interested, shoot me a message.

Here are a few pictures of what we have been doing to stay busy learning. Most activities are made up with items I already have at home. I'll also mention that we have been doing different themes to learn about. So some of our activities coordinate with those themes.

I hope that you get inspired by some of our activities 😊

Stay well my friends.❤💙💛
