Create, shake, watch and reset.
The DIY Calm Down Sensory Bottle is a beautiful visual sensory tool designed to encourage quiet observation, focus and calming sensory play. Give it a shake and watch as the colourful contents slowly swirl, float and settle through the water.
Each bottle comes with everything needed to create your own sensory bottle - simply add warm water and a little washing-up liquid at home. Children can enjoy the process of making their bottle before using it again and again as part of sensory play, quiet time or a calm corner.
We especially love that these bottles are reusable and refillable. When you're ready for something different, empty the bottle, clean it and create a completely new sensory experience using one of the refill packs available separately.
With a range of themes and colours available, children can also choose a bottle that appeals to their individual interests and sensory preferences.

How to Make Your Calm Down Bottle
Simply add warm water and a dash of washing-up liquid to the included sensory materials, secure the lid and it's ready to explore.
Shake the bottle to send the contents swirling through the water, then place it down and watch everything slowly move and settle.
The repetitive shake-and-watch experience can provide a simple visual focus during quiet moments or as part of an existing regulation routine.
Choose Your Design
A variety of Calm Down Bottle designs are available, with colours, themes and sensory contents varying between options.
Our available designs change throughout the year as new styles arrive and others sell out, so simply select from the options currently available.
We also stock Calm Down Bottle Refill Packs, allowing you to refresh your bottle or create a completely different sensory experience without replacing the bottle itself.
