Outdoor play is always something that the children looked forward to!
It is also a time where they learn through play such as enhancing their social skills, numeracy like counting how many scoops to fill up the mould, using their senses to feel the sand and many other learning which is involved during sand play!
Hmmm.... That container looks nice... Maybe I can ask my friend later.
Scoop, scoop, and keep scooping... And pour it out again.
"What do you have in there, Kiera?"
So engrossed in the pretend play cookery!
If it has been awhile since they last visited a beach with sand play, dear parents it's time to bring them soon!
Through sensorial hands-on play, the children get to learn much more!
