Bell Activities for Tots & Preschoolers

Bell activities are a favorite among tots and preschoolers. They're particularly special around the holiday season, especially with so many songs about bells being sung and heard.

Sunshine is very much about practical life and sensorial activities right now. Anything that keeps her hands busy and moving makes her happy.

I hope these activities can do the same for your little ones!
