counting coconuts diy smelling bottles counting coconuts pages home faq about contact free printables wednesday january 12 2011 diy smelling bottles smelling bottles are a standard material in the sensorial area of a montessori classroom the purpose is for the child to develop their sense of smell the process is simple the child sniffs their way through the bottles trying to match two identical scents this is one of those materials i couldn t see purchasing because they seemed easy enough to make and they were these have been a work in progress for a looong time i use mccormick spices when i cook and even though i cook a lot it still took me nearly a year to save up enough bottles for this project here s how i made them i selected 8 identical glass bottles each with a flip top the top doesn t matter so much i just thought they were fun i cleaned the bottles thoroughly to remove any leftover scents from the spices i filled each bottle with a handful of cotton balls which mask the the appearance of the scents and make the activity more challenging i sparingly poured in one extract per bottle i used four different kinds of extracts in total vanilla peppermint orange and coconut i chose extracts because my bottles are clear but if you use plastic or wood bottles you can get away with using herbs spices and other food items as your scents i labeled one half of the bottles with a blue star and the other half with a red star i created a control of error by subtly marking the bottoms of the bottles with dots using a permanent marker so for example the two peppermint scented bottles will have one dot the two vanilla scented bottles will have two dots and so on the hardest part was finding a good box for these there are actually supposed to be 12 bottles in total 2 sets of 6 scents i ll add to this collection over time as there are several more extracts available to learn how to present smelling bottles click here thank you for your comments posted by counting coconuts at 10 00 am labels diy activities montessori sensorial 27 comments anonymous said great job mari ann these look like so much fun january 12 2011 at 10 14 am the girl who painted trees said i ve been saving up stonyfield yogurt smoothie bottles for this and to make baric bottles it s taking a long time because i only buy them when i have a coupon p i ve made smelling bottles though before using baby food jars http theadventuresofbear blogspot com 2009 09 five senses html january 12 2011 at 10 20 am debbie said love this idea i knew i was saving spice bottles for a reason now i can explain to my dh why i m keeping empty spice bottles i don t have enough yet however anyway thanks for sharing i ll have to keep my eye out for a good box too january 12 2011 at 11 00 am michelle said hmmm i m going to have to start collecting spice bottles i m almost through a cinnamon and i just threw away a couple others argh january 12 2011 at 11 53 am minara said love this idea leaving you a comment for the space giveaway january 12 2011 at 11 57 am mama know best said this is such a great activity i d forgotten about this one from when i worked in montessori i can t wait to make some for my little one january 12 2011 at 12 10 pm katherine said i love this would love to add something like this to my classroom january 12 2011 at 1 08 pm rockermom said what a great way to recycle all of those empty spice containers when robbie was younger i placed spices coffee etc into coffee filters and closed them as an introduction to his sense of smell in case anyone is interested feeding the senses kitchen aromas january 12 2011 at 1 40 pm andrea said thanks mari ann i was planning on making my own too and really like yours for inspiration january 12 2011 at 4 11 pm miller moments said what a great idea january 12 2011 at 10 01 pm the hemleys blog said hi mari ann excellent my comment for today for the give away but also because i love this work don t know if you ve watched the free margaret homfray videos she was a friend of maria m and helped montessori write the english programme in the video on smelling bottles she mentions to only use 3 or 4 matches the website says if there are too many pairs everything begins to smell the same http homepage mac com montessoriworld mwei sensory smell html she also has another nifty idea to make small bags that you stuff into the bottles with dried herbs coffee teas etc which i think add to making the work interesting and cyclable good work hugs tracey january 13 2011 at 1 31 am unknown said love it i have been saving my spice bottles since this summer for this very thing i m so glad i did because yours turned out so cute january 13 2011 at 8 51 am counting coconuts said thank you for your comments tracy thanks for sharing that information and link i am very familiar with history of ms homfrey and her videos between the video my training and various websites there is conflicting information as to the correct number of bottles so my intention is to just chose a quantity that works for us and go from there january 13 2011 at 8 57 am rachel finding joy said great job and great idea thanks for the inspiration january 13 2011 at 9 49 am olives and pickles said fantastic idea good mama january 13 2011 at 1 29 pm the monkey boy s mom said i love that you mentioned how hard it was to find the right box i am just
