When I became a mom I knew that I would be a “hands-on” mom. A mom that would love doing crafts, working on school work at home, baking with my children and so much more. These are some of the favorite memories that I have with my mom from my childhood, she loved a good project with my sister and I! When “Finding Dory” came to the theaters, I knew it was a movie that I would take my children! The on-going theme that I loved from “Finding Dory” was learning to overcome challenges no matter what obstacles come along!
Having a Special Needs daughter, this is often a lesson I have to remind myself of and continuously teach her. There may be obstacles but if you work and be consistent you can overcome anything!
This is the reason we work on personal crafts at home, to work on the skills that are needed in school.
One of my daughters favorite “centers” at school is the sensory bin. It is the first center she takes me to when I visit her classroom. We created “ocean-inspired” sensory bottles, before movie night! We have movie night often, and I love creating a craft around the movie and watching the kids play with their craft while we are watching a movie
Ocean-Inspired Sensory Bottles Tutorial
Supplies:
Sand*, Empty Bottle, Vegetable Oil, Food Coloring*, pretend Fish, Shells or Water Pebbles, and Glitter
**I used White Sand and Blue Food Coloring; however, you are able to use whatever colors you like
Directions:
Fill bottle approximately 2 Inches with Sand
Add items to create your own aquarium…pretend fish, shells, water pebbles and glitter
Lava Effect: Fill bottle halfway with water, and fill the rest of the way with Vegetable Oil
No Lava Effect: Fill the rest of the bottle with water
Seal bottle with duct tape or glue to ensure there aren’t any accidents once the children are playing with the sensory bottle!
If you come to my home, there is usually a box of Kleenex in every room. Since I have little ones, you never know what they may get used for…cleaning up messes, messy faces, sniffles and sneezes. My children love the softness of Kleenex, they are the perfect balance of softness and strength, Kleenex facial tissues are durable with 2-ply thickness and are absorbent to lock in moisture.
