MOVE. PLAY. LEARN.

EARLY YEARS AREMOVING YEARS

Young children love to move and movement is a critical part of early childhood development. Today we are seeing missing pieces in development because children are often not moving as much as they used to move. In the first years of life, the young child’s brain needs input from all of the senses to learn. From the first head turning to riding a tricycle or climbing up the playground slide, each movement stimulates the senses which build essential neural connections in the brain.

EARLY YEARS AREPLAYING YEARS

The Elastablast band and book provide a wide variety of fun-filled play experiences with so many sensory elements. As young children gather around the Elastablast with their friends for great social interaction and play, they also take in information from all their senses. What an amazing sensory processing experience for young children!

EARLY YEARS ARELEARNING YEARS

“All learning begins with the body. It has to. It's our point of reference-our own personal, portable true north, so to speak. And for children, its even more so because the body is the brain's first teacher. And the lesson plan is movement.”
