Slingshot Quiet Bin

August 26, 2016 by Sarah Leave a Comment

A Quiet Bin idea on Friday (to complement the quiet time activities found in my two Quiet Bin books: A Year of Educational Quiet Bins and Dollarstore Quiet Bins)

I am cheating a bit this Friday, because we are still completely engaged with the Quiet Bins from our newest book.  I thought I would share one from that book, Dollarstore Quiet Bins: Nine dollarstore items, 30 brilliant Quiet Bins.

These Quiet Time activities are perfect! Easy, engaging, and made from only a few dollarsotre items - ALL 30 activities!

This one has been a fan favourite. A slingshot Quiet Bin.

I know what you are likely thinking … Quiet?

But it is truly not that bad. We use pompoms and they don’t go very far at all. Little bodies still get rest and quiet with this one, and it is completely engaging making it a perfect Quiet Bin to help little ones with transitions.

A few elastics of different lengths and widths clipped to the sides of the bin with clothespins and there is loads of learning happening too.

I hope you get a few moments of quiet today friends! Thank you so very much for reading.
