Sensory bottles are always so fun to make and play with! Today's Under the Sea bottle is colorful and so simple to assemble.

What are sensory bottles?

Sensory bottles are usually filled with liquid and small objects. They create a relaxing and engaging experience for kiddos, stimulating many of their senses. 

This sea sensory bottle can also be used as a learning tool. Children can identify colors, shapes, sea life animals, and more.

The older kiddos can make their own bottles and the littles can too with some help and supervision. This is something they can come back to and play with time and time again.

Helpful tips:


  • If you notice the bottle bubbling up, you can skim the bubbles off with a spoon and discard.
  • If you'd like to seal, apply a small amount of glue where the cap meets the bottle. You can also use decorative tape around the seal after the bottle is closed.
  • Add a small amount of glitter for a shimmering effect.
