Sand is both a solid and a fluid, which is changeable and easy to master. Its endless forms and endless gameplay are essentially to meet and develop children's internal needs and creativity in operation. Psychologists believe that playing with sand is not only a game, but more importantly, it has too many benefits for the baby's growth:

First, the development of sensory perception

The early development of infants is mainly the development of sensory movement, and sand can provide special sensory perception. In the process of playing with sand, they will come into contact with different textures of sand, such as wet sand, dry sand and sand with different particle sizes. Sand is fluid, and it will sink when stepped on, especially when you grab a handful of sand. The flow of sand between your fingers will give children a special feeling and develop their perception.

Second, practice hand coordination to promote hand muscle development.

When playing with sand, the baby slaps the sand hard or scoops it up with a shovel. This action can develop the fine movements of children's wrists, master the coordination of limbs, and also control the movements of hand muscles. It not only promotes the development of the body, but also promotes the development of the brain.

Third, playing with sand can develop creativity.

Children's creativity is manifested through specific creative activities, which is inseparable from children's games. Playing with sand is one of the most free and beautiful activities we can provide for children.

Fourth, get emotional satisfaction.

Playing sand table games gives the baby a great sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. When the baby is playing with sand freely, his mood is naturally pleasant. Babies can play in the way they like, feel the joy of self-control, and feel happy. For those babies who lack self-confidence or are introverted, they are more satisfied and fulfilled.

Fifth, improve the cognitive ability of spatial relations.

Playing "loading and unloading" with sand added more fun to him. By shoveling sand, the baby has a preliminary understanding of the relationship between the bucket (container) and the sand (content), especially when the container filled with sand is turned upside down and shapes appear one by one, which will further develop the baby's ability to understand the spatial relationship.
