Children are natural explorers. Set some basic boundaries, and let them discover. Children use all of their senses
to explore. They look and listen to observe what is happening around
them, touch what they can reach, smell the fresh scents of nature, and
occasionally taste when given permission.
For a child, everything is new—even the tiniest things are interesting
and exciting. In today’s entertainment-driven world, exploring the
outdoors is an opportunity for children to actively engage in learning.
Our friends in Preschool 2 set out on a great outdoors adventure this morning and picked out some neat pine cones. They discussed the look, smell, feel, and even discussed what they thought it would taste like. They brought them in and decided to do some painting with them.
