    Sensory Bottle


    I have several students who love visual stimulation so this is great for them. Sensory bottles are SUPER easy to make and typically can be made using stuff you already have laying around your classroom or house.
    Materials:
    • water bottle
    • water
    • food coloring
    • glitter/sequins
    • beads
    • heavy duty tape
    1. Fill an empty water bottle with water. (I typically use the small bottles but one of my colleagues uses 2-liter bottles which provide an added weight/heavy work component).
    2. Add food coloring, glitter, sequins, beads, etc (anything you think your student would like to watch floating around).
    3. Put the lid back on and use tape to secure lid (you will use a lot of tape on this!)
