Hands on Learning

Many times, as adults, we consider that all learning must be conducted at a desk or table. But, in a young child's life the opposite is true. Children are concrete thinkers, and need hands on experiences to order their world and their learning. And besides, LEARNING SHOULD BE FUN! Many of our activities are not the "take home" variety, but are experienced in games and activities we participate in throughout the day. Here is a Valentine Box of Chocolates with hidden capital letters. We had a lot of fun with this activity, and then ate chocolates from a REAL box of chocolates!
