Drawing UNDER the Table

Today we offered a new opportunity at the Writing table! The teachers taped large sheets of paper underneath the table and invited the children to lay down on mats and pillows to draw! Allowing the children to draw in this position can help support core muscle development and simply invite children who do not normally prefer to come sit and draw at the table. Sometimes asking children to sit on a chair for a period of time may not be stimulating enough for their bodies, and welcoming a different position may allow a child to feel more stimuilated and able to focus!
