Easter Morning ideas for Toddlers

This Easter sensory bin is a fun and easy bin for a fun themed Easter with toddlers. 

Toddlers can learn about the color yellow and white (chicks and bunnies) and can pretend play with this simple and fun Easter sensory bin. *Supervision is advised. 

If you’d like to keep any of the items in this sensory bin contained, a fun set of Easter sensory bottles containing the rice and pom poms would work really neat too. 

Tip: Be sure to glue the cap onto the craft bottle with a craft glue gun for extra security.

We like to keep ours in the mid range. 

Everyone is different and a sensory bin can look different depending on:

• Living Arrangement

• What you have on hand. 

We’ve made sensory bins in small, medium and large bins and they all worked great! 

Choose what is best for you and your family! 🙂
