There are two options for this soil sensory dig experience:
1. Simply dig - literally let your little one dig around in the soil. Naturally this can be a very messy option but introducing your child to getting their hands dirty is a good thing! Of course be careful to not let your child put their fingers in their mouth or (anything else) and wash them well afterwards.
2. Soil bag discovery: grab some soil and place it in a zipper bag. If you have plastic garden animals, place them in the bag as well. Other options could be flower petals (dandelions work too), leaves etc. Close the bag tight (double-bagging might be a good idea) and let your child explore!
