Ocean Sensory Bin Idea: Shark Week Sensory Play
This shark sensory bottle is great to play with for Discovery’s Shark Week celebration or for use as an ocean sensory bin idea!
To go along with Discovery Channel’s Shark Week we’ve created quite a bit of shark related content with crafts, books, and other great resources to pack out your week with your kids! This shark themed sensory jar is super easy for your kids to make on their own and a great toy to play with and decorate their room with all week long! You don’t have to stick to just sharks! Include all his ocean friends (or prey?) in this fun themed sensory bottle.
Shark Sensory Jar Materials Needed:
Plastic jar (clean peanut butter jars are perfect)
Plastic Shark(s) and other sea creatures
Glitter Glue
Water
Directions:
Place a bit of gravel into the bottom of a plastic jar (clean peanut butter jars are perfect). Add a few small sea creatures and add as much glitter glue as you desire. Fill the remainder up with water. Add a bit of glue to the threads on your lid to keep it from opening and tighten back on. Aquarium sealant would of course go further in ensuring it’s waterproof ability.Voila! Ocean in a bottle!
