Hands-On and In Person Training
Join us for dynamic hands-on training sessions designed to enrich a teacher's resources while providing enhanced classroom materials.
What to expect
During these interactive events, participants will learn how to identify "chaos feeders" and use sensory experiences to foster peaceful, focused environments. Discover practical techniques for creating sensory stations and quiet zones using recycled materials, making it both budget-friendly and effective.
These workshops sit alongside our early childhood professional development trainings, which run in person as symposiums, seminars, and sessions.
- Instructor-led build sessions tailored to early childhood classrooms
- Materials lists provided in advance; bring a can-do attitude
- Local examples for infant, toddler, and preschool classrooms
- Fun, hands-on learning perfect for individuals or teams
