I created these sensory bottles for the boys last holidays and they proved to be a hit, even now they'll stop and shake them about watching the colours and shapes float around inside the bottle.
To make:
I found some little soda bottles and emptied out the soda.
I added water almost to the top then put some confetti, glitter, googly eyes and even pompoms.
I mixed it up, making bottles of blue, some of green.
Once I had added the pretty things to the bottles I super glued the lids on so there would be no accidents.
The baby especially loved these bottles. This activity is good for visual and cognitive stimulation as well as gross/fine motor having to use their muscles to make the bottle shake. Its also great for learning about cause and effect.
We had friends around with their children who sat shaking the bottles and watching the glitter or confetti float about,
Easy and quick to make.
A toy that keeps for a long time!
