Product Description
This platform has two sides – one you'll notice immediately, and the other side will surprise you after a while. Good Wood Sensory Platform resembles a flying carpet because you can swing and balance on it – it’s a lot of fun to play and a fantastic way to develop gross motor skills. On the other side, the platform is a graphomotor board, thanks to which preparation for learning to write becomes a beautiful adventure – a game of imagination and discovering the world with all senses (i.e. polysensory).
Before a toddler starts drawing lines or putting the first letters, he has to develop fine motor skills – learn to use his hand and fingers. This is what playing with the platform is for – by running a finger or brush over the shapes carved on it, the child exercises precision and prepares his hand for writing. For fun, you can use natural fragrant materials (cloves, cinnamon, anise), which will stimulate other senses – a toddler equipped with a brush will feel like an archaeologist discovering ancient hieroglyphs.
If you additionally include music introducing the atmosphere (e.g. oriental and a bit fairy-tale), all senses will be involved in learning to write. This is the essence of multi-sensory teaching, pioneered by Maria Montessori.
