How to apply

The Course

This tailored learning course introduces you to sensory play and how it can support children’s development through practical activities. You will explore how children learn through play and discover ways to create engaging sensory experiences.

Throughout the course, you will take part in activities that use movement, sound, and different textures. You will learn how sensory play can help children develop confidence and communication skills while supporting their wellbeing and early learning. The course also looks at how these activities can be used at home or within early years settings.

Classes are supportive and easy to follow. You will have the opportunity to try activities for yourself, build confidence, and develop a better understanding of children’s development through play. This course is suitable for anyone interested in childcare or supporting young children.

There are no formal qualifications required. An interest in childcare, play activities and supporting children’s development would be useful.
You can progress onto other tailored learning or introductory childcare courses at Cheshire College. This course can also help you prepare for volunteering opportunities or further study within early years and childcare.
£38.88
