Kids Art & Play All of childhood is a time of exploration, learning, assimilation and mastering of skills.
Brain development from birth to age 3 is an amazing period. Not only is it a time of intake of massive amounts of information but the brain itself actually increases to almost 80% of its future adult size. Preschoolers are stretching their cognitive abilities and growing in independence, basic life skills and knowledge. They are mastering fine and gross motor skills. They participate in more interactive play and begin to exhibit imaginary play. At One Acre Farm, we believe young children thrive being outside with nature, running, playing, exploring, experimenting, and getting dirty. We provide a 'yes' environment for the kiddos to navigate through with their parent(s). There is no wrong way to play or experiment with the activities. In fact, we try to encourage toddlers and preschoolers to have freedom to be creative and use items in unexpected ways. This activity time is inclusive of children with autism and neurotypical children. In addition to all the fun activities, you can walk around the animal pens and see ducks, rabbits, chickens, turkeys, goats, potbelly pigs and horses. Feel free to bring celery sticks and carrot sticks to feed the animals. |
