26 Sensory Calm Down Bottles To Make For Kids

July 6, by Shellie Wilson.

Welcome to our collection of 26 Sensory Calm Down Bottles for Kids! These bottles are designed to help children who may have difficulty calming down or regulating their emotions.

Many children, especially those with special needs, have difficulty managing their emotions and may benefit from sensory activities that help them to focus and calm down. Sensory bottles are a great tool for children as they provide a visual and tactile distraction, which can help to soothe and calm them.

These tutorials include a variety of different sensory bottles, from basic water and glitter bottles to more advanced variations such as oil and water bottles and light-up bottles. Each tutorial includes detailed instructions and a list of materials, making it easy for parents and educators to get started.

We believe that sensory activities are an excellent way for children to learn how to regulate their emotions and to focus. By providing children with tools that help them to calm down, we can help them to develop their emotional intelligence and to be more resilient. So let’s explore the world of sensory bottles and discover how they can help children to calm down and regulate with these fun and educational tutorials!

 

This roundup is for calm down bottles or sensory bottles for kids. These 26 tutorials give you a huge variety of different themes for kids of all ages. Sensory bottles work to distract the child or adult from the current overwhelming feeling, allowing their sense to calm and regulate. A great homemade toy for kids with anxiety and big emotions.

Sensory play includes any activity that stimulates any of your child’s five senses: touch, smell, taste, sound or sight. Sensory play is only limited by your own or your child’s imagination. Sensory play is an important part of development and learning.

Sensory activities are offered or are set up as an invitation to encourage children to use their senses while they play, create, investigate and explore.

When we talk about the senses sight, smell, hearing, touch, and taste it opens up the learning world.  Any or all of these can be incorporated into play to create a sensory play activity/invitation.

How to Finish a Cross Stitch Bookmark

One of my favorite ways to introduce new crafters to cross stitch or embroidery is by having them make a bookmark. They’re useful even if they don’t turn out that pretty, and it’s a small enough project that it can be done pretty quickly, even if you don’t have a lot of stitching skills.

For little kids I love to have them start stitching on burlap because the holes are big and forgiving, and they can play with cross stitch or other kinds of embroidery all in one place. These are usually finished with duct tape on the back both to hide the stitching and knots and to seal in the edges so the fabric doesn’t unravel.

There are, of course, prettier methods for finishing a cross stitch bookmark, especially if you are working on Aida fabric. A common thing to do is to fold the fabric over on itself and then sewing down the edges. You can do the same thing with regular fabric or felt sewn on the back, but if you’ve planned to have extra cross stitch fabric on your project that makes it even easier.

If you need help making your cross stitch bookmarks pretty, check out this post with a tutorial from A Stitch of Blissfulness.

The post has plenty of photos to make it clear what you need to do. You can finish all the edges in the same way so that they are closed, or you can make fringe along the top and bottom of the bookmark by unraveling a little bit of the fabric on the ends. She shows how to do this too, and it’s a cute look though I don’t know that I would always do it this way.

If you like to stitch bookmarks, how do you finish them? I’d love to hear about it.
