Why should you make sensory bottles?

Sensory bottle is a type of sensory play, which offers a “hands on” approach to help babies make sense of the world and learn to make different connections through play. It is easy to make with endless number of possibilities and creations. Babies and toddlers could learn through playing with the bottles. Also, it could be calming to some babies. Using different materials, babies could easily be entertained and pick up different associations. They are also suitable for all ages (see this article for some ideas which are related to science for the older children: http://littlebinsforlittlehands.com/5-easy-science-discovery-bottles/) There is really no harm in trying to make one to introduce to your child. Just make sure to seal the cap properly to prevent any “accidents” from happening. :)
