FAQ Series.

"Why would you let children paint themselves and get so messy?"

This is a type of art called "process art".
Process art allows us to focus on simply creating art, without wondering if we are doing it right or wrong. It relieves stress because we aren't focused on a specific "end product" but the journey of creating art.

Many children benefit from the sensory outlet of process art. They also learn how to create, design based on their own desire and problem solve independently.

Here's a great article with more info:

Soap - wet - scrub - hands together - in between fingers - backs of hand - rinse!

Hopefully all while singing a song that lasts about 20 seconds. We usually pick the first verse of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.

We found a water feature on our walk today.

Walks are so good for children! They naturally improve mood and physical health. Walks allow children to learn about nature and provide excellent opportunities for early social studies lessons and traffic safety. We walked by a school, several businesses, a busy bus depot! These are all awesome locations to teach children about their local community.

Developmental skills being learned:

Social Understanding - Relating to Others - Social Interactions with Peers - Knowledge of Nature - Motor and Movement Skills - Safety
