Kids Crafts, Sensory Play, Science, and More
As you may have seen, we do a lot of sensory play around here and it is for good reason. There are so many benefits to sensory play. We recognize that sensory play can create a bit of a mess at times but we truly feel that the benefits outweigh the need to clean up the occasional mess. We also set boundaries around how we play. So let’s dive into all the benefits of sensory play and even talk a little more about the boundaries we set in our home.
We have been talking about trying to catch a Leprechaun since last St. Patrick’s Day. My kids spent a good majority of the day last year coming up with a plan and seeking out a Leprechaun with their uncle. Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, last year’s attempts were not successful. So this year, they wanted to set up a Leprechaun trap for St. Patrick’s Day.
It is Pi Day today! If you are unaware, Pi Day is March fourteenth or 3.14! Since none of my children are quite old enough to understand the number as a math fact yet, we decided to celebrate Pi Day differently by utilizing our mud kitchen. Instead, we made mud pies for Pi Day.
