I’ve been having a blast shooting train videos for my son’s new YouTube Train channel, Kian’s World of Trains, and showing all the ways you can have fun with trains! Make sure to check out his painting with trains and train sandwich videos!
Sensory bins are wonderful for exploring textures and imaginative play!

We created this fun Train and Dinosaure sensory bin using shaving cream and washable paints. Watch the video above to see all the fun in action! This is one that kids age 5+ can do on their own with adult supervision!
