At the same time, they will exercise their motor muscles, executive functioning skills, in addition to developing creative imaginations and social emotional learning / SEL capacities. Also included are correlations with the Next Generation Science Standards, a variety of supporting visuals, and some simple creative dramatics for the very young. The projects and text highlight the benefits of lively, evolutionarily consonant, arts- and play-based learning.
