Go With The Flow

Remember that post I wrote last week about sensory play? I showed you one of our outdoor sensory tables that was full of gravel, trucks, and various sensory tables toys.


Well, I walked outside today and opened the table and thanks to mother nature I discovered muddy water, wet gravel, and dirty toys. I automatically started to put the lid down before announcing that it would be closed today. Then I asked myself why? It's just like the water we play with in other sensory tables, plus dirt and mud. It's preschool, we get dirty everyday, and everyone has a change of clothes. The wet and muddy gravel table was open! The children loved it! They even had splashes of mud all over their clothes and face for evidence. 


I've realized that going with the flow (which is totally not like my "I have a routine and schedule for everything" self) is often more fun than original plans. I hope everyone got to enjoy the beautiful weather today. We spent the majority of our day outside and it was wonderful!
