Help me give my students materials to create a valentines sensory bin for the month of February.

My Project

I would love Valentines Day martials to create a sensory bin. We would use the pom balls, the heart beads and the cups to work on fine motor skills. The students can use the tweezers to separate the colors, count the objects and more. The sensory bin also is used to finger writing and scavenger hunts. The students are able to use their fingers to practice writing and we also hide letters and numbers in there as well. We would also like some books to go along with the Valentines theme as well as the winter month.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
