Using Body Doodles (PDF)
Find out how amazing our bodies really are, and what incredible things we can do by stimulating the connection between body and brain
Young children are just discovering that their body is amazing. They can do more and more things, better and better all the time, at their own pace. Using their physicality helps children discover important connections between what they can do with their bodies and how the world works.
This fun-filled pack encourages the practitioner to follow the children’s lead and make our environments and children’s learning, more physical, not less. It focuses on enhancing the characteristics of effective learning outlined in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), as well as some great tips to help you think, explore, teach and move all at the same time.
