Kinesthetic Approach To Learning
For: Child (Age 4 – 6)
We all learn optimally in different ways. Some children are visual leaners, needing to see to record it in their minds. Others are auditory learners who need to hear to remember while some need to touch, feel and do to lock in the information. All these, however, work best if all of your child’s senses are awakened through fun movement activities that help to enhance visual and auditory focus. When merged with hands-on learning activities, it will boost your child’s learning experience to the maximum.
