Exploring colour, light and texture ✨
The children have been busy pouring, scooping, stacking and drawing at the light table and in our sensory trays. These open‑ended experiences support fine motor skills, problem solving and language, while giving children space to wonder, experiment and create at their own pace. 🍃
