🌻 Water Play Invitation 🌻
Our little explorers enjoyed a calming sensory water play experience today, filled with bright flowers, floating lily pads and a variety of scooping, pouring and collecting tools. 💛💙🌸
As they poured, splashed and investigated the floating objects, the children were developing:
💧 Hand-eye coordination
🌼 Fine motor skills
🫗 Early mathematical concepts such as full, empty, more and less
🗣️ Language and communication through describing what they could see and do
🤝 Turn-taking and cooperative play
🔬 Curiosity, exploration and problem-solving
Water play is a wonderful way to encourage children to slow down, focus and learn through play while engaging all of their senses. Watching the flowers float, using the colanders and nets, and experimenting with how the water moved created lots of smiles, conversations and discoveries! 🌞✨
