Scooping, digging, and building with sand is so much fun and is one of the "jobs" of preschool age children! However, we do not have a sandbox on our playground and digging holes in the dirt is resulting in a very bumpy playground.
We are a publicly funded preschool in Vermont. We serve close to 100 preschool age children in an integrated setting each week. We value outside playtime as an essential part of our curriculum. Our students LOVE to be outside and they love to play in the dirt and sand. An outdoor sandbox would allow the children to engage in this very important work in a safe way.
Sand play is addresses many areas of development; including fine motor, visual motor, sensory, social, and language skills. Children have to cooperate and collaborate. They learn to share and take turns. They engage in creative problem solving and idea building. Many of the children in our program are receiving special education services to address delays in their development. We use sand and other sensory play is an integral part of the therapies.
An outdoor sandbox has been on our wish list for many years. A grant allocating funds for this recently fell through and we are looking for a creative way to fund this very important item. Please know that your donation, big or small would be greatly appreciated by happy teachers and many little preschoolers busy at work in their new sandbox!
