Always supervise
These sets contain small pieces that could be a choking hazard.

Set basic rules
Be sure to set some ground rules for your child when they are playing with a sensory bin. For instance, 
if it is something that is inedible, then let your child know that they should not put the objects in their mouths.
 Usually our only rule for sensory play is to keep the materials limited to the bin or tray.

Use a floor cover
For easy clean up, put a sheet on the floor and replace spilled contents back into the tray after play.
It helps to contain the mess and makes clean up so much easier. You can use a sheet, tablecloth or
shower curtain.

Opportunity to bond
Join in and play alongside your child, especially if he or she is a bit hesitant to try it out. Show them different ways that they can play or ask them to describe what they are doing as they play.
