My students are very sensory based. We need a sand and water table for hands on learning to maximize their understanding of science and math concepts. Sand and water are used widely in early education. Great for sensory development and improving vocabulary as children can discuss how the sand and water feel and engage in conversation about their sensory experiences. It can have a huge impact on the development of children's mathematical concepts. Exploring sand and water teaches children to try out different mathematical ideas, it helps develop problem solving skills and challenge themselves and others. Sand and water helps children to understand different movements such as tipping, splashing and pouring as well as different concepts like ‘more than’, ‘less than’ and ‘equal to’. Playing together encourages team work, communication and socializing skills too. When children play together in a shared sandbox or at a sand and water table, they are often faced with problems involving sharing tools, negotiating for play space, and compromising on what to build in the sand.
