My children have always loved playing with objects they have found in our yard. However, sometimes the days are rainy and dreary like today. What's a nature loving kid to do?
How about have a natural sensory basket available for indoor play? The basket pictured above includes acorns, pine cones, seed pods, and some magnifying glasses for further investigation. Colorful leaves would be another great addition.
There are lots of great fall sensory bins all over the internet right now. Sometimes I look at them and think I need to rush out and purchase the exact items someone else used. Then I stop myself and realize that a basket full of natural items that didn't cost me a thing is just as good. :)

I am the same. I always feel like I need to buy fancy things. I love this natural one so much more!!!! Gonna have to make a trip up the mountain to collect as we are in Tucson. Our bin would be filled with cactus and mesquite beans, lol! Thank you for the inspiration!
