Scent Jars for Sensory

Today I made six scent jars. This is a really inexpensive way to meet the sensory needs of some of our students. I got a six pack of small plastic jars at Dollarama ($3.50) The lids were very thin and I easily poked two holes in them with a small screwdriver. I asked the other teachers in my schools if they had any extracts at home I could borrow. My co-workers came through well and I only had to buy cinnamon sticks ($1.50). So I made these for around $5.

The scents I used were:

  • Cinnamon sticks
  • Vanilla extract
  • Orange extract
  • Lemon extract
  • Imitation coconut
  • Imitation maple

    We placed a few drops on cotton balls and placed them in containers.
