Sensory Bin: Autumn

Here's an Autumn themed sensory bin I put together for my daughter that she is really really enjoying :) (inspired by Counting Coconuts' fall sensory bin)

 

Inside our bin we have:

- little autumn animals: chipmunk, hedgehog, skunk, and raccoon (from our library storytelling kit)
- a strawberry basket (formerly full of fresh farmer's market strawberries, yum!)
- sparkly fabric autumn leaves
- a yarn apple (see our post here)
- a little rake to rake up the leaves
- 3 pinecones
- a mini pumpkin (from farmer's market as well)
- a little clay bowl
- acorn caps
- and tiny decorative plastic leaves

My daughter is loving pretend play with the little animals...feeding them acorns, apple, and pumpkin, making them burrow in the leaves, and having them talk to each other. Raking is always fun too!
