Ep 3 How to Help Kids Develop Wonder and Curiosity at Home

Episode Description

Does your home learning environment provide children with opportunities to explore and wonder?

Children love to learn about the world around them using their senses.

It makes sense then to create an environment for children that will allow them plenty of opportunity to do just that.

You don’t need to invest in tons of plastic toys to create a stimulating environment, but we do need to take some time to think about the objects and toys that will allow our children to wonder, problem solve and express themselves in creative ways.

Today, I explore the objects and toys that we can bring into our homes that will allow our children to explore and learn in fun and creative ways.
