Help me give my students the supplies they need to play, learn and grow within the classroom. Creative learning fosters imagination, expression and exploration.
Art & muisc is vital for early childhood education. Creative learning fosters imagination, expression, and exploration. Sensory play encourages curiosity and problem-solving.
"For a small child, there is no division between playing and learning; between the things he or she does ‘just for fun’ and things that are ‘educational.’ The child learns while living and any part of living that is enjoyable is also play."
Penelope Leach
In our new early childhood center, I want to provide kids with a variety of provocative materials and loose parts to inspire creation including jars, play dough, paint and other supplies. Art can be so much more than drawing and painting, we will explore sculpture, weaving, sewing, using recycled materials and loose parts. Our sensory table is see-through to add interest and will be filled with a slew of different materials over the course of the year.
