encourage in classrooms and in homes?

learning about in classrooms and in homes?

playing?
Early Brain Builders
• Consistent, repeated, and multisensory
learning experiences strengthen brain
network connections.
• These experiences lead to gains in
cognitive understanding and an increased
ability to retrieve the information in new
situations.
Water Their Brains
• The bodies of children are 65% water,
however, their brains are 85% water.
• A child’s brain needs water throughout the
day to function properly.
• Because children metabolize faster than
adults, they can become dehydrated
faster than adults.

extended arms.
• Handle a manipulative during activities.
• Use balance beams with props.

surfaces, and objects to step on and over.
