Super Sensory Invitations to Play is a delightful resource that encourages your children to explore the five senses through the year, using a wide variety of sensory materials. It includes 52 invitations to play, linked to the festivals and seasons of the year, and including water, ice, dough, rice, paints, sand, sensory tubs, and more. They are easy, simple, and fun ideas that you can use right now to give a multi-sensory boost to your play and learning.
By combining math and art you are encouraging your children to work at peak performance. They can put to work the ‘right-brain’ functions of creativity and holistic thinking and the ‘left-brain’ functions of focus and concentration. Art and math integration in our classrooms makes learning accessible to all. It changes the atmosphere from one of rote, fact-based memorization, to one based on discovery and deep understanding. The projects in this workshop are hands-on and fun, and they preserve and foster the innate creativity with which we’re born.
Play dough is such a beneficial material for children to play with and so versatile that it can be used however old your children are, and whatever their passions might be.The Homemade Play Dough Recipe Book brings you recipes and play ideas for a whole year of activities. It includes great ideas for sensory and imaginative play, creating small worlds, art projects, and math and literacy activities.
