My Project

The materials I picked for my children will make a big difference with their gross motor play. I chose the Out and About music and movement kit so that the children can take music outdoors where they can be free and as loud as they want.

To build up social development I've also chosen items such as TotSportstm Easy Scoretm Basketball Set, Wooden Mini Golf Full Set, Six Pin Bowling Set, Meadow Ring Toss Game and Balancing Balls.

I've picked out extra outside supplies like: the gross motor materials, goals and balls and pumps so that the children can utilize that big open space. These materials will make a big difference in our outside play, so that children are not playing with random items found on the ground.
