At Pinewoods Tot School and Preschool they had a great deal of fun doing a rain and cloud-focused sensory bin. They learned all about how clouds fill-up with rain and then release it when they have too much!
Materials needed for the rain and cloud sensory bin
To do this sensory bin you will need:
Cotton balls
Plastic cups
Tub/bin full of water
How to do the rain and cloud sensory bin
To play with the sensory bin follow these steps:
Take your bin/tub full of water and set it down.
Grab your plastic cup and fill it with water.
Dip your cotton balls in the water and notice how when they are very full they drip water like a cloud.
Continue having fun with the cotton balls--dip them in the tub if you want, squeeze them, and so forth!
