Maclay's Pre-K Art Engages Children's Senses In Open-Ended Play And Supports Cognitive Developement (Part 3 /COTA2022)

Art is important for children especially during their early development. Research shows that art activities develop brain capacity in early childhood. Shout out to Maclay's Pre-School because you guys nailed this art show!!! Art engages children's senses in open-ended play and supports the development of cognitive, social-emotional and multi-sensory skills. This is evident in your Art Show, Kudos to all of the faculty staff down in Maclay PK!
