Magnet Sensory Bin

When designing a magnet sensory bin, make sure that the materials are safe for the learner.  We like to use a large wreath hanging magnet that is both large and strong.  If you are worried that a learner may swallow the paper clips, either choose other objects that react with magnets or link the paperclips together in a long chain.  In addition, stay with the learner to make sure he/she doesn’t swallow the small objects.
