Duplo + Kinetic Sand Sensory Bin

duplo kinetic sand sensory bin- toddler at play (2)

This Duplo + Kinetic Sand Sensory Bin is an easy sensory play idea that will keep your toddlers at play for a long time!

It’s super easy to set up, in fact you only need a tray, kinetic sand and some Duplo pieces. That’s it! Simple to prep but so good at keeping the kids wonderfully engaged and busy giving you the free time you need. I love this sensory bin and usually set it out for my kids if I need to prep a meal, clean around the house or grab a bite my self. It works like a charm!

Kinetic sand is amazing (if you haven’t tried it yet)! And my kids are ready to play with it any time. But adding a few unique “add-ins” takes this, pretty simple sensory bin, to a whole new level.

What is my child learning and improving?

  • Sensory play (playing with the different textures of the sand and Duplo’s)
  • Independence (this activity is wonderful as independent play activity)
  • Focus + concentration (allowing the kids to work with only a few materials improves their focus!)

    I am wondering where you bought the sensory box you are using with the sand? Is there a place to purchase the complete sand sensory idea above?

      Hi, it’s a box from some sort of toys my kids had. I haven’t come across any sensory play kits, but I’m sure there are! If you find any let me know 🙂
