What educators are saying

I used this resource in our sensory table. I used sand for the cocoa, connecting cubes for the cocoa, pipe cleaners for the candy canes, and cotton balls for the marshmallows. My students LOVED this resource. It was very engaging and was able to be an independent center.

We used these cards in our hot chocolate sensory bin. I have actually used these 2 years in a row (it has taken me awhile to fill this out). Both years the cards were a hit and the center was always very busy!
