Hop to making some Easter sensory bottles! Your kiddos will love exploring these bunny, carrot, and egg hunt sensory bottles in your classroom or home. Put the bottles in the safe place, on the light table, or in the science center for students to observe. Students can observe the bottles change as they shake, twist, turn, and roll the bottles. Keep reading to find out how I made each one and what materials I used to make them! It’s easy, I promise!
