We had the most amazing morning on Saturday teaching a lovely group of Educators everything we know about sensory play. π We were able to pass on our knowledge of how we create each of our setups.
We designed a fun hands-on workshop where everyone learnt how to make a range of sensory bases. All the Educators got to take home a bag of sensory play goodies for their kids to enjoy. π
π Contact us if you'd like to run a sensory play workshop!! π
Thanks for having us Lifetime Connect Child and Family!!

Our large painting easel is so much fun! π But did you know your child is developing so many skills while they paint on it!
Vertical surface painting develops:
π¨ Core strength.
π¨ Shoulder, arm, and wrist stability.
π¨ Gross and fine motor skills.
π¨ Spatial awareness.
π¨ Midline crossing.
π¨ Bilateral cooperation.
There are so many things happening in the brain when working on a vertical surface!
Our easel also offers a process over product experience. πΌ
Process art allows children to experiment with movements and materials freely. It nurtures social and emotional skills, reinforcing relaxation, focus, and self-esteem. It also bulids cognitive skills such as comparison, prediction, planning, and problem-solving.

Learning to use scissors helps children to build hand strength, develop hand-eye coordination, and improve bilateral coordination. As well as helping to strengthen fine motor, visual motor, and visual perceptual skills.
Our spaghetti trays offer a no pressure, process over product, fun way to practice, and improve cutting skills.

We love being able to provide sensory play for older children and watching them love it just as much as the little ones do. π©΅

When children play, they learn!
Through sensory play, children get to investigate new textures, smells, and sounds.
Sensory play involves open-ended resources that encourage problem-solving and strategic thinking, as well as boosting language and motor skills.
Through play, curiosity and imagination are built.
Play nurtures children's cognitive and sensory processing abilities.
Sensory play can help children to self regulate and calm their body. It is also a great way to reduce stress and anxiety.
