kindercompany project senses

After spending the last two years working on our project "nutrition and exercise", the main features of which have crossed into our everyday routine.

In our new project "CHILDREN'S ACADEMY OF THE SENSES" we would like to offer the children the possibility TO EXPERIENCE THE WORLD WITH ALL SENSES, as they want to see, hear, feel, taste and smell the objects and events that they live with.

Information about the new project

  • school managers receive basic training in "Sensory Integration" (what can the sensory system contribute to a child's development?)
  • training of the individual teams by the manager (which activities can I as a pedagoge offer to encourage the development of perception?)
  • acquisition of materials to encourage the development of childrens's perception
  • promote employee awareness of introducing everyday materials to be used for perception development.
  • constant employee education and training about "senses"
  • theme relevant excursions and cooperation with external parties


The project costs of € 20.00 per month stay the same. These are comprised of the running + fixed costs of the project "nutrition and exercise" (continuation of balanced nutrition), as well as costs of the new project.

THE SENSES:

SEE

We obtain an impression of most things visually. Eyes are the most used sensory organ.

SMELL

The sense of smell warns us of danger, and can bring back both postive and negative memories.

TASTE

Our tongue reveals to us whether something tastes or not, as well as warning us of danger.

TOUCH/FEEL

With our skin we can appreciate the nature of our surroundings.

HEAR

With our ears we can appreciate and recognise different sounds. The sense of hearing makes a substantial contribution to the development of speech.

SENSE OF MOVEMENT

The sense of movement ("Kinaesthetic System") enables us to perceive space, time, energy and pressure in relation to our own body. The connection of all the senses is called "Sensory Integration"
