Hot, summer days call for water play! This summer we enjoyed water play here at KOTA. Our children came dressed in their swimmers, ready for a morning full of water activities, including water sprinklers, sprinkler mats, water troughs, stepping stones, and watering cans. Water play not only supports a child’s physical development, but allows children to develop their fine and gross motor skills, social skills and encourages them to engage all their senses! It also encourages children to be critical and curious thinkers, including investigating what floats or sinks, understand measuring and volume, and explore cause and effect. It has been a valuable addition to our program!
