One of my goals this year is making seasonal sensory bins that I can use year after year. I’m not a big fan of ones that use dried rice or beans because I think my daughter would just try and eat it all. And I don’t want to use perishable items because then I can’t keep it to use again next year. Those priorities are how I pick what to include in my sensory bin activities. Full list of items are linked 👇🏻
I hope this goes without saying but ALWAYS watch your kids while they are playing with any of these sensory supplies. While I make careful choices about what to include in these to minimize chocking hazards or risk, children should always be observed to ensure safe playing.

Supplies
- Green Easter Grass Basket Filler
- Multicolored Standard Sized Easter Eggs
- Multicolored Jumbo Easter Eggs
- Pompoms
- Pipe Cleaners
- Cardstock
- Scalloped Circle Punch
- Plastic Bin
Like I’ve done with other sensory bins I’ve put together, I was determined to not buy anything and just use items I had around the house, while still making it cute and giving it a theme. I decided to make this Easter one about color matching. The colors I used were decided by the colors of jumbo Easter eggs I already had from a previous DIY project where I made dragons eggs out of them.
I used matching colors of pompoms or card stock cut into a scalloped circle to fill the base of each egg to start. Then I added a smaller egg in the same color and inside of those I have pipe cleaners twisted into different shapes. See the making of it all on my IG reel.
