Sensory bag ideas
⭐Safety: This activity requires adult supervision at all times. Use thick bags, seal and reinforce them well, check for leaks or tears before each use, and never let your baby put a bag in their mouth.
Make It Easier
For a baby who isn't crawling yet, show one bag at a time during tummy time. For a baby who's starting to crawl, line up the bags in a row and encourage movement between them.
Make It More Challenging
Place a favorite toy just past a bag to encourage reaching, crossing the midline, or crawling toward it.
