Learn through Play
In the recent years, technology use amongst young children was already at an all-time high pre-COVID, now enter the “new normal” with online schooling, virtual playdates and more, and it may seem like your toddlers are stuck to the screen. But according to a study published in JAMA Pediatrics in 2019, screen use changes the way kids' brains are wired. Children who have more screen time have lower structural integrity of white matter tracts in parts of the brain that support language and other emergent literacy skills, and these children also have lower scores on language and literacy measures.
Busy Box Child Sensory Boxes does not only entertain your little one, but stimulates their senses (play dough smells amazing) help, develop independent thinking, develop fine motor skills, develop science and math skills (using skills useful for science and math in measuring, guesstimating and learning about cause and effect while manipulating sensory materials) and so much more!
Through sensory play, children can explore and naturally use scientific processes while they play, investigate, create and discover new sensations. Sensory play is also linked to supporting early child development. For example, listening to new sounds supports language development, and sorting unique materials, like soft versus hard items, supports fine-motor skill coordination and cognitive development.
