Back in September, when my class did a unit on Bugs, we did this Sensory Table activity. I have added this to the Bugs Unit webpage and the Sensory Table webpage.
I added about 3 bags of green Easter grass to the sensory table, and hid plastic ladybugs and ants in the grass. Each child at the sensory table used a pair of tweezers and a bug box. They searched through the grass to find the bugs, picked them up with tweezers, and placed them in their bug box.
