This document discusses the importance of sensory experiences for infants and toddlers in developing physically, cognitively and emotionally. It emphasizes the role of hands-on exploration with various natural and open-ended materials both indoors and outdoors. Examples highlighted include playing with sand and water, using a light table, incorporating plants and flowers, exploring blocks and tunnels, and enjoying outdoor spaces with varied surfaces, climbing structures and natural elements. The educator's role is to provide developmentally appropriate challenges and support children's growing independence.

How does preschool benefit a child? | Principal Mrs. Sumitra Mitter, Arun Nu...Shirsendu Kar
Under the leadership of our Principal Mrs. Sumitra Mitter, Arun Nursery School has embraced the concept of 'Theme Teaching'. Learning and social skills, as well as important concepts, are developed in children through this approach. This approach emphasises Concept over Content and helps the child develop a holistic outlook towards life.

Infants & Toddlers Learning
Environments The Indoor
Environment: Designing and
Organizing
Just like adults, infant and toddlers get frustrated when they cannot easily
move through an environment, or find what they need. It is our job as
caregivers to make sure the classroom is thoughtfully designed and
materials for play are well organized. This lesson highlights how to design
your room for group activities, privacy, storage and display, with attention to
all learners, including the adults. It provides an introduction to design
elements that promote a sense of comfort and invite exploration and
engagement. This lesson also examines how to organize materials for
independence, easy use and learning.
Objectives:
Distinguish between spaces for group experiences, privacy, storage,
and display.
Identify characteristics of a well-designed indoor learning environment.
Learn ways to arrange an indoor learning environment to promote
infant and toddler growth and development.
Describe how to organize materials for independence, easy use, and
learning.

What is Your Perspective?
Infant and toddler caregivers make many decisions each day: which books
to read, what questions to ask a toddler’s family, which experiences to offer,
which materials to place where, etc. In many instances, these decisions are
the result of careful advanced consideration, in addition to a personal
understanding of how an infant and toddler learning environment should be,
feel and look.
Infants and toddlers, like most of us, are drawn to inviting and engaging
environments. Thinking about the ways to create a safe, flexible, and playful
indoor learning environment requires planning and exploring ideas from
multiple perspectives.
Arranging the Indoor Learning Environment
The space and furnishings should come together to create an indoor
learning environment that is tailored to meet the needs of developing
infants and toddlers. They need close supervision, positive guidance and
stimulating experiences during this period of rapid growth.
When considering the physical space of play areas, it is important to create
a space that is not too open or too crowded. Young infants need protected
areas with enough room to practice their growing abilities and movements,
such as rolling over and crawling. Mobile infants and toddlers need space as
they explore and learn to crawl, walk, dance, jump and build with blocks.
Space is important for both active and quiet play. Well-designed areas
provide both physical boundaries and visual cues that support individual
and peer play.

encouraging independence in pre-schoolers is essential for their development and future success. By offering choices, encouraging self-help skills, allowing natural consequences.
6. Children should be active learners through hands on exploration of materials.
7. Redefine the water table. Think of it as a sensory table and consider the use of various materials.
8. Some materials may only be available when they can be closely supervised by the educator and can be put away or closed up when attention is more divided.
9. Light Table Experimenting with light can provide a sense of wonder while also building a foundation for later science explorations.
22. A simple way to store blocks for infants and toddlers.
23. Versatility These materials can be arranged many different ways. This flexibility allows for educators to provide new challenges as children gain new skills.
24. Opportunities to climb over, under and through are important for infants and toddlers to gain a greater competence in their physical abilities.
28. Storage of materials should encourage independence. Being able to successfully access and put away materials on their own builds children’s self esteem.
29. Responsive Educator The educator noticed that this child was interested in exploring the large blue ball. When it appeared she was losing interest, the educator rolled the smaller ball over and the infant’s interest was renewed.
46. Completing the same activity with different materials or tools can provide a unique opportunity for learning.
47. Climbing this large rock was an appropriate challenge for this older toddler who still required close supervision and support from his care giver.
48. Varied surfaces are important to explore Cement or paved areas can be used for riding toys and bikes as well as a place to paint or use chalk. This is corn starch paint- easy wash up!
49. Take it outside Materials and activities can be taken outside when weather permits.
50. Allow children to interact, become comfortable with and enjoy being outdoors.
