Lego Table

I know this isn't really a sensory table, but I put out the lego table in the sensory area of the room a few times a year.

Snow

I bought some insta-snow on amazon. It is fluffy, spongy, and even feels cold to the touch. I put it in the sensory table with shovels and buckets. Since I live in a place that snows, I've also used real snow before. I liked the insta-snow better because it wasn't as cold. A lot of my students didn't like playing with the real snow because it was too cold.

Pumpkins

I put pumpkins in the sensory table in October for our Pumpkin Unit. I cut the pumpkins in half and give the kids spoons and magnifying glasses to scoop and explore. I also make bowls with the words "seeds" and "pulp" on them so the kids can sort the pumpkin guts. I also have plastic hammer and nails and mr potato head pieces. The kids hammer nails into the pumpkins to make holes and then use the mr. potato head toys to make silly faces.

Water Table

I love the water table. It can get messy, but my students can play at it all day. I have water wheels, boats, water pumps, cups, turkey basters, ducks with alphabet letters, sea animals, and magnetic letters and fishing poles.

Sensory Table

 

Sand Table - Jurassic Sand

Have you heard of Jurassic Sand? I love it! It's soft, clean, and it lasts forever. I ordered mine here. Lakeshore also sells "Clean Sand" which I think it similar. I add something to my sand table every day to keep it exciting for the kids. I have shovels and sifters for the kids to play with. I add letters, numbers, or shapes that the students can find in the sand. I also have miniture dinosaurs and construction vehicles.

Sand Table - Moon Sand

Moon Sand is my favorite sand because it is moldable. You can buy it in a variety of colors. I have sand castle molds, letter molds, sand stamps, and other toys for the kids to play with.
