Driving Question: How can we use our senses to explore, learn, and grow while we play?
Empowered Babies are having so much fun this week learning about shapes and textures as they play! They also LOVE our new mirror addition to our sensory wall! Babies always enjoy looking at their reflection!
The joy babies get by spotting their own reflection in a mirror also helps:
- Increase their ability to focus
- Begin to develop social skills
- Foster their curiosity
- Enhance their cognitive development (by introducing the concept of object permanence)
- Strengthen their bodies (by having little ones lift their heads or use their torso and arm muscles to look in a mirror)
