Exploring Sand Play: Benefits, Safety, and Curriculum Integration
Sand play may evoke images of tiny grains slipping through fingers or scattered across the floor, but beneath its simplicity lies a deeply enriching experience that soothes, strengthens, and supports children's development. Far more than just a sensory activity, it serves as a gateway to emotional expression, integration, communication, creativity, and connection. When thoughtfully guided, sand play becomes a dynamic tool for fostering attachment, self-regulation, and holistic learning. This course equips early childhood educators with insights into the profound developmental benefits of sand play. Participants will explore essential safety considerations, purposeful integration strategies, and ways to create engaging, sensory-rich learning environments. (3 hours)
