Shaving Cream Exploration

Activating children's senses is an effective way to stimulate their mind. This week, the children of Sesame Street engaged in a shaving cream and paint exploration which encouraged the use of three of their five senses. Sight: They were able to observe the paint swirling, twirling, and mixing with the shaving cream; creating a variety of color shades. Smell: Shaving cream has a distinctive smell and the children absolutely enjoyed it. Touch: The children were able to use their hands to explore the smooth, fluffy shaving cream. The children enjoyed making these shaving cream creations, and, little did they know... they were learning the entire time! They were exploring self-help skills and exploring building and art materials! Who knew learning could be so interesting?
