The Power of... SENSORY PLAY!

We are beginning to wrap up our Summer theme and we are making the most of every second! Our final weeks have been all about exploring our senses. We have discovered sensory bins, listened to birds nests, created homemade sensory boards and have brought the outdoors in!

Exploring the senses creates bilateral brain connections and provides optimal stimulation for brain development. Here are a few examples of how we have been exploring the senses!
Tummy Time is perfect for gross motor development and feeling different textures!

While scooping in our outdoor construction sensory bin, she said "I can hear the birds and smell our lunch cooking!"


Sensory Bags are a great way to introduce infants to new things. He's checking out a few leaves we found on a nature walk!

We are nearing our Fall Academic Year and would LOVE for you to be a part of our family! 
Give Candace or Jen a call!
