This year during our homeschool preschool and pre-kindergarten, I thought I would try out some sensory bins. We are almost to the end of the alphabet, so even though some of these letters are hard to do I’m going to finish up.

During our twenty second week, we worked on learning about the letter “V.” To find items for our Letter V Sensory Bin I raided the girls’ toys, my craft supplies, the pantry, and our school supplies.

Letter V Sensory Bin was a lot of fun. 🙂 I have included the Amazon links to the specific products I used or noted next to them where I got the items.

Supplies needed:

Plastic bin with lid
Family sized bag of frozen mixed vegetables (grocery store)
Plastic letter V’s capital and lowercase
Velcro strips
Velvet bags
Volkswagen toy cars
Volkswagen toy van/Fillmore from Cars
Fine motor tool set

Directions:

Cover bottom of bin with the frozen mixed vegetables.
Add in the plastic toys, letters, and pieces of velvet and Velcro.
Give plastic fine motor tool set to your child to use while exploring the bin.

The girls loved exploring their Letter V Sensory Bin. They used their hands to dig around and find the toys, the fine motor tool set to scoop, grab, and pinch up each item. They also counted the different kinds of items, counted the total number of items in the bin, and tried stacking the items.

The first time the girls started exploring their letter “V” sensory bin, I read Growing Vegetable Soup from our Tot School Letter V Books list. During the rest of the week, we listen to music genres or instruments that begin with the letter “V”.

Have you ever tried a letter V themed sensory bins with your kids?

Have a great day!
