MINI LESSONS

Story baskets are an engaging, hands-on way to develop early literacy skills in young children. These baskets contain a carefully selected book along with related objects, toys, and props that bring the story to life. They encourage interaction, comprehension, and a deeper connection to the narrative.

By using tangible items from the story, children can connect the words they hear to real-world objects. This helps them understand the sequence of events, characters, and plot, improving their overall comprehension skills.

As children explore the items in the basket, they engage in discussions about the story. This exposure to new words and phrases helps expand their vocabulary and supports language development.

Play dough kits provide a hands-on way for children to explore letters and sounds through sensory play.

• Boosts Letter Recognition – Molding letters reinforces shape recognition.
• Strengthens Fine Motor Skills – Rolling and shaping dough builds hand muscles for writing.
• Supports Phonics – Saying letter sounds while forming them aids early reading.
• Encourages Sensory Learning – Engaging touch and movement improves retention.
• Fosters Creativity – Making objects for each letter reinforces sound connections.
• Introduces Spelling – Forming simple words strengthens early literacy.

By making learning fun and interactive, play dough kits help children develop key alphabet skills.
