Learning Through Play

I truly believe that children learn best when they are fully present in an activity and feel free to explore. When all five senses are engaged, we create stronger memories and the experience becomes more meaningful. Think back to your favorite childhood memories. Were your strongest lessons learned sitting behind a desk, or were they created on a field trip, during recess, or while playing in the park? I bet you can remember vividly the sounds, tastes, smells, textures and sights. Through this blog, you can easily create meaningful play kits for your children or students. With a little bit of time, and a tiny bit of skill, you can do this. Each kit has specific learning objectives built in. The best part is, these kits are all fun and exciting!

Hi! My name is Natalie and I’m an ECE. Yes I know...What is an ECE? I am an Early Childhood Educator. This means that I teach and care for children. With over twenty years of experience, I specialize in programming for school age children. My philosophy is centred in the belief that children learn best when they are having fun, and feel free to explore. I’ve always had a passion for teaching. It allows me to share my interests such as music, cooking and gardening. In return, caring for children has provided me the opportunity to continuously learn, and to become a better human. I am incredibly excited to share these ideas with you? Enjoy.
