[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel sad for the confused parents. Do you not understand sandboxes either? Or digging in dirt? Or playing in a pool? A "sensory bin" allows your child to do some of those same activities inside, because sometimes it is convenient to have your child play inside. My kids liked to play in water, sand, and beans the most. Rice turned out to be too powdery for all of us. Moon sand was Ok but not worth the expense. Some kids love shaving cream but we never tried it.[/quote] Um, ok what? Obviously we play with appropriate things in appropriate places -- when outside, my kids play in sandboxes, water table, dirt/grass, go swimming, and when we are inside, do indoor things like play with dolls or puzzles, read books, dance, build things with blocks, etc. Do you not have any of those? Because I'm not sure why sensory bins are necessary when there are plenty of other appropriate things to play with indoors. [/quote]
