Toddler Activities at Home –Zipper Board | Ziploc Sensory Bags

Zipper Board

Have those old bags that you are about to throw out? Remove the zip before you do that! Collect all the zips from unused bags and stick them on a board. You can stick them straight or zigzag or in form of alphabets.

This activity is beneficial for the toddlers tiny muscles in the hand, fine motor skills and hand-eye co-ordination. It is also amazing to watch their tiny hands trying to zip it open and close.

You can also sew few zippers on a piece of cloth. You can carry it during travel and keep the toddler busy for a while.

Ziploc Sensory Bags

One bag and more than 10 sensory bag activities for toddlers. I am sharing few of them here.

• Fill the Ziploc bag with water. Use a sticky tape to seal it. Tadaa! A simple sensory bag for the little one.
• Pour different paint in the bag, seal it and stick it to floor or window. The toddlers tiny fingers will do their creative work.
• Squeeze the clear hair gel into a small Ziploc bag, you can add multiple things at a time such as buttons, small toys. Again, seal it with sticky tape.
• To the hair gel add few drops of red food color and mix it thoroughly. Add the mixture to the bag along with watermelon seeds. Stick the bag on the window where the sunlight comes through. This will keep your toddler busy and love watching the shining sunlight passing through the bag.
• You can make a sensory squishy bag using clear hair gel according to themes such as Summer, Winter, Fall, Valentine,etc. Use objects related to the theme.
