Playing in the Sand

The best sand centres are the big ones! The long jump pits are a perfect place for children to gather and play in the sand. 

Roads are built and cakes are made very near each other. What a great way for children to share ideas.

Loose pieces become walls as cooking takes place beside the construction crew.

Scooping and scraping gets tiny muscles and big muscles stronger. The children notice that as they dig deeper, the sand changes.
Mountains, roads, volcanoes....the work of imagination.

Cooperation, shared space, 
Discovery,
Playing 'house',
Building worlds...
The joy of playing in the sand.
