March Sensory Box

On Monday I wrote about Sensory boxes 
and their role in the Montessori environment.

Having seen many Montessori blogs post photos of their sensory boxes,
I wanted to build one for Hannah.

However, the one step missing from the other blog posts
the I had read was HOW they built them.

SO, I vlogged the photographed the step-by-step process 
of creating her March Sensory Box, explaining
where I bought items and why I included them.

Hopefully this helps you design a stimulating box for your child!

Click the photo to see each addition to the box, 

and watch the video below for further explanation, and to 

see how Hannah responded to seeing the box for the first time.

Tip:

The bigger the better.  

Even with a towel as large as this, I was still cleaning it off the carpet.
