Finger Paint
At BestStart Ponsonby we provide our tamariki with a wide range of sensory experiences to ensure that we are giving them the best start possible in life. Everything we do is done with careful, and intentional thought.
From birth through to early childhood, children use their senses to explore and try to make sense of the world around them. They do this by touching, tasting, smelling, seeing, moving and hearing
Research shows that sensory play builds nerve connections in the brain's pathways, which lead to the child's ability to complete more complex learning tasks. Sensory play supports language development, cognitive growth, fine and gross motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction.
