19.01.2022 Rain, glorious rain! They made a bridge, they made a see-saw, they improved on the see-saw, they made mudpies, and they oozed the mud through their feet and h...ands! Did you know- -Kids naturally seek out the sensory input their little bodies need to regulate their emotions -Soil has microbes in it that can help combat anxiety and depression -Making and remaking their inventions was using (and therefore strengthening!) their executive functioning skills- the skills you probably want them to have for their schoolwork, like paying attention, planning, organizing, prioritizing, and even regulating emotions. They were also taking turns and communicating to get to the plan. -"Heavy work", like lugging big rocks and pieces of wood, engages a sense called proprioception, and helps kids to feel centred and grounded -When they're playing, kids are usually in a state of flow, which is good for their mental health -They were having FUN! (WHICH IS GOOD FOR THEIR MENTAL HEALTH TOO!) So that's the upside of that patch of lawn that won't grow I hope you're enjoying this rain too!
