June is National Aquarium Month

Make mini aquarium sensory bottles so kids can tap on the aquarium wall without getting in trouble as they shake up some ocean animals, make some waves, and learn about the creatures of the sea.

You will need:

• Sand
• Empty bottle
• Small ocean toys
• Water
• Blue food coloring (optional)
• Small Shells (optional)

How to make:

• Fill the bottle with approximately 2 inches of sand
• Fill bottle with water. If the sand is dusty overflow the water bottle so the dust runs out
• Have the child add small shells and a drop of blue food coloring
• Close the bottle tight and the sensory bottle is ready to be played with!
• You may want to seal the bottle shut by gluing the lid.
