These children are using their hands in so many ways,
polishing silver, creating a rubber band design by stretching a rubber band,
stringing, buckling, using tongs, using a baster to transfer water, using play
dough and chopping apples.
The children are using real objects, feeling
the objects, manipulating and taking a form of mastery over the object.
This is so vital for the development of young minds who are still very new at
encountering the real world. They need to understand cause and effect and
one of the best ways to do that is through the interaction of the hand, the
senses and the real world around them.
