Suggested Family Activity ๐ŸŒŠ Ocean Sensory Bottle

Published by Library Staff on

To make an ocean sensory bottle today, just grab an empty water bottle or plastic sandwich bag, make sure it is well sealed, and fill it with a mixture of sand, rice, and small items such as beads, seashells, or plastic coins.ย  Children (and adults) will be mesmerized for hours as they turn the bottle to see what is revealed along the sides.ย  Another alternative is to use water to fill your bottle.ย  You can even tint it with a little blue food coloring to look more like the ocean.ย  And for extra security, put a piece of tape over the top to keep it from spilling.
