What is a Sensory Bottle?

A sensory bottle is a clear container filled with various materials that stimulate the senses. These bottles are often made from plastic or glass and sealed tightly with strong glue to prevent leakage.

When shaken or manipulated, the materials inside create a mesmerizing visual display, captivating both children and adults alike.

A pom pom sensory bottle is a bit different as it doesn’t add in oil, glue, or water. It is a new different type that your toddler will love! Even babies love this one.
