January Sensory Bin and Playdough

I have had the sensory bin for about a week, and I made the playdough this past weekend. That's how long it's taken me to get back in to the swing of things after Christmas vacation!

The playdough isn't dyed, is scented with almond extract, and is sprinkled with white glitter. There are cookie cutters to spell the word "snow" and a snowman cookie cutter. In the box are spoons, a knife, and a rolling pin.

There are glass gems in the little white bowl.

Can't really see the glitter, but it's there! This playdough smells heavenly. I really want to eat it.

Contents: blue snowman bucket found in the Target dollar section, clear food prep bowls, various scoops and spoons, a nesting penguin, polar bear finger puppets, rubber ducks, glass snowman beads, and tiny snowflakes, all from Oriental Trading Company, plastic ice cubes bought on ebay, blue Christmas ornaments found at the dollar store, and finally acrylic gems from Michaels.

For the medium, I used clear plastic pellets, like what is found in bean bags. This was the first and last time that I will use those. Even though my kids are careful, these get everywhere and they are hard to see to pick up.
