The Woodlands Children's Museum Details
Here at The Woodlands Children's Museum, we take play seriously! We believe play is the key to life-long learning that empowers children and their families. Rather than being "just fun," we recognize its role in helping children achieve success as adults. Play fosters early childhood development in the following ways:• Physical skills – Movements like walking, crawling, climbing, and dancing during our weekly Boogie Bash involve the whole body to strengthen large muscle groups. Hands-on activities, such as using tools, making art, and manipulating elements, promote smaller muscle coordination. We also support physical exercise as part of ACM's Let's Move! Museums & Gardens and Good to Grow! leadership initiatives.• Communication skills – Talking, listening, reading, and writing are all ways to communicate with others. Practicing these abilities from an early age contributes to social and emotional development as well.• Social and Emotional skills – Learning how to get along with others through collaboration, negotiation, and respect builds excellent teamwork skills. Through play, one has more opportunities outside the classroom to resolve conflict, increase resilience, and exercise self-control not only with one's self but also others.• Critical thinking – Abilities such as problem solving, spatial reasoning, and decision making promote cognitive development in children. They gather information through different activities, like matching shapes or finding patterns, to understand the world around them. Asking open-ended questions and brainstorming solutions is the foundation for this kind of higher level thinking, which they can do at one of our many science-related programs such as E.A.R.L.Y. Robotics.• Creativity – From science experiments to art making, creativity leads to all kinds of new discoveries. We provide many opportunities to inspire the imagination.
