The Importance and Impact of Sensory Play
Sensory Play is so much more important for children’s development than you may initially believe. Sensory play serves as a foundation for all early learning and has significant impact on the 7 (not 5!) senses.
As an educator, what will be your takeaways from this workshop?
- You will gain an overall increase in capacity and skill set surrounding sensory play and its relevance to whole child development, including the 7 senses and the 6 developmental domains.
- You will examine your program’s policies and procedures to better understand their best practices for sensory play.
- You will gain an understanding as to how to implement sensory play in your classroom that is tangible for both you and your program.
- You will get excited to implement intentional and meaningful sensory activities, experiences, and environments that are safe, open-ended and encourage play.
- You will experience an overall reduced number of challenging child behaviours in your classroom…and who doesn’t want that?!
This workshop is just like us - engaging, creative, informative 😊
