It’s officially Summer, and to celebrate, we are launching a special Instagram competition for you to win a bundle of sensory sealife goodies! ☀️🐳🐬

At Connect Childcare, we understand the vital role of resources in early years education. Resources offer a vehicle for learning and thinking, helping practitioners create enabling environments and encouraging children to explore independently through their play. Because of this, we have teamed up with some of our favourite brands to create this sensory sealife bundle!

Summer is a season for fun and sun, and we want to provide you with all of the resources you need to create a fun sensory experience for the children in your setting!

The bundle includes:

• Hope Early Years – A pack of 7 Sealife Animals Set

Sealife Animals Set from Hope Education

Each animal model is as close to nature as possible, developed by a dedicated team of designers and sculptors and painted by hand. These models will inspire the imagination and promote positive role-play whilst at the same time encouraging conversations on predator and prey, lifecycles and endangered species.
