Sensory bins are not only great for engaging your child in fine motor activities, but they’re also really awesome for sparking the desire to play more with toys and loose-part items they already have. I am awful at tidying Adam’s play activities. The next day the Tuff Spot, dinosaurs and diggers were still outside. However, the home made kinetic sand had dried out and had turned into a chalky substance that was hard but turned to dust when you moved it in yours hands. To my surprise Adam acted out the story completely by himself using the repetitive language in the book. He went inside a retrieved the blue container we had used for the swimming pool and set about creating the pool again. Dinosaur Dig is certainly a huge hit in our household!
