Kids with learning problems often have sensory issues.\u00a0 A few weeks ago I wrote about our therapy sand, which kids love. We also have another kind of sensory sand that is great for getting into the \u201cnitty gritty\u201d of sensory issues.\u00a0 This \u201csand\u201d can be expensive to purchase, but here is an affordable recipe that is easy to make.\u00a0 Kids can form letters, create shapes, or just enjoy the \u201cfeel\u201d of the sand.<\/p>\n
Sensory Sand Recipe<\/strong><\/p>\n 4 cups of play sand (you can get this at an aquarium supply store or at a home improvement store like Home Depot or Lowes)<\/p>\n 2 cups of corn starch<\/p>\n I cup of water<\/p>\n Food coloring and\/or glitter<\/p>\n Mix the all ingredients and keep sealed in an airtight container.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n That\u2019s all there is to it!\u00a0 Kids of all ages can enjoy the sand.\u00a0 See if you can create new and different ideas for this fun and sensory-based sand.<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t want to bother with making the sand, you can get it at www.amazon.com or other places where educational materials are sold.<\/p>\n Best wishes,<\/p>\n Lisa<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kids with learning problems often have sensory issues.
