As we embrace the arrival of the new season, our early years recently received a special delivery of orange pumpkins. The sweet aroma of pumpkin has filled our classrooms and playgrounds.
At UISG we prioritize sensory play to promote learning and development. Our children have been actively engaging in various activities that involve these lovely pumpkins. From washing and painting them, cooking with them, and turning our pumpkins into process art sculptures using various materials. They have even taken hammers and hammered a variety of objects into the fleshy skin of the pumpkin, exploring their curiosity and practicing their fine motor skills.
Through these playful experiences, our children are not only having fun, but they are also enhancing their language skills. The wonders and curiosities they have encountered while playing with the pumpkins have sparked meaningful conversations and language development.
We believe welcoming the new season should be a joyful and enriching experience for our little ones. These pumpkin-themed activities have allowed them to do just that. We cannot wait to see what other adventures and discoveries await them in the coming weeks.
