During Sensory Play Hour kids will be diving into relaxing and engaging sensory bins and curating calming activities for your little one to give their bodies a time to pause. This is an amazing way to support sensory exposure, cognitive development, fine motor skills, and emotional regulation- especially after a long day at school. Sensory play has even been shown to help kids focus better in school. Although we won't be making art in this class, your child will leave each class feeling a sense of peace and ready to transition easily into their nightly routines. |
