This Valentine’s day sensory bottle is easy to make and a lot of fun for babies, toddlers and preschoolers. My 14-month had a great time shaking the bottle and watching all the objects move around. If you’re looking for non-messy sensory play for the little ones, this is the perfect activity to keep them busy. You can make them any time of the year. Only a few craft supplies are needed for this Valentine’s Day sensory bottle for kids.

Supplies:
-
Plastic bottle with wide mouth (16 oz.)
-
Clear Tacky Glue (4 oz.)
-
Glitter (pink, silver, red)
-
Hot water

Small objects (plastic hearts, heart confetti, plastic lips, plastic jewels)
Directions:
-
Start by adding clear tacky glue to a wide mouth plastic bottle. See picture above for example.
-
Next, add some glitter and small objects to the bottle.
-
Then add hot water to the bottle but don’t fill it all the way up. Leave some space to determine whether you want to add more glitter or small objects.
-
Once satisfied, fill the remainder of the bottle with water. Add the top and give it vigorous shake.
-
If you’re happy with the results, let the bottle sit (uncapped) until the contents reach room temperature.
-
Finally, add a dab of hot glue around the inside of the cap and seal the bottle. Your child can now enjoy playing with their Valentine’s Day sensory bottle.
