Bugs Sensory Bin Printables

Use these bug sensory bin printables with toddlers and preschoolers to set up a bug themed matching activity and to start a discussion about bugs.

Fill a sensory bin with a simple filler like shredded paper, colored rice, dried pasta, etc and then cut up one set of the colored cards and hide them in the bin. I would recommend laminating them for prolonged use.

Invite children to hunt for the cards in the sensory bin. As they find the cards they are to match them to the second colored card. Alternatively they can color in the images on the black and white follow up activity sheet. 

To add interest you could add other bug themed items to your sensory bin such as small bug figures, bug catchers, magnifying glasses etc.
