At the Academy, our philosophy of learning is that children learn best through play. There is no better way to learn through play than sensory play! Sensory play is so important for a child's developing brain, as it helps build nerve connections in the brain.
Through sensory play, children are able to taste, feel, hear, see, and smell their materials, allowing them space to process how the world works. Sensory activities heighten understanding of various concepts and stimulates our senses by physical interaction with the materials.
Sensory play may be messy but at The Academy of Seaboard Lane, we know that children thrive when allowed to play and explore!
