sand and water environment to
develop learning across the whole curriculum.
It provides:
- creative ideas and starting points for sand and water play
- brilliant colour photographs
- detailed practical advice on how to initiate, create, develop and use
sand and water to support learning across the early years curriculum
- excellent resource lists
- links with indoor and outdoor play
