Farm Games & Sensory Bins
Once a month I like to have some games ready for the kids to play, before or after they do their craft. This theme was based around the farm, and it was a lot of fun to plan. I can't say the top pick for games, but it was a tie between the two sensory bins, for sure!
1.) Here is the website where I found this adorable game, sorting the pig tails. We made our own version, which is pictured below. The kids loved digging through our rice to find the pig's tails.
2.) The next game was another sensory bin, and in this game the kids got to dig out the letters from the bin filled with rice. Then they matched the letter with the corresponding barn. For this one, I used barns and then added the letter and picture of the animal. Again, the kids loved digging in the rice but also seemed to enjoy matching up the letters. We used six barns, but below is a picture of what two of the barns looked like.
3.) The last game was bowling, and we took a bowling set we had and taped farm animals to it. Bowling is always a big hit with the kids!
