The Creative Learning Co. Blog

Teachers pour their hearts into providing our children with a good education and priceless experience. It’s rare that anyone other than their families see the long hours they put in perfecting their lesson plans, setting up new activities, and grading papers. 

Let’s show our appreciation this holiday season! 

The holiday season is approaching! We know that the thought of adding more toys to an already full playroom is not ideal. 

At Creative Learning Co.™, we believe setting aside a space for your preschooler’s open-ended and imaginative play will foster hours of independent play for your child.

Have you ever tried dying popcorn kernels?  It is a great addition to sensory play!  You can create vibrant colors to match any theme.  While easy, the process to dye the popcorn kernels takes a day or two.   If you maintain them well, they can last for a year or longer!

We're sharing our favorite way to dye popcorn kernels with you!

Whenever you think about redesigning a room in your home, your end goal is likely to make it an inviting space. A space you are drawn to and desire to spend time in.  

The same is true for your child’s space, especially when you are setting up an area where they will be spending a lot of time learning and discovering through play.  

When it comes to open-ended play, simple is often better. We love the Coin Board™ because it can easily be used for a wide range of ages and levels to help improve: 

• Fine Motor Development 
• Hand-Eye Coordination  
• Coin and Number Recognition 
• Counting Skills 

We’re here to create products that help you foster moments of creativity and opportunities for your child’s creative side to soar!  

The Art Easel Board™ will be well-loved over the years to come as your little artist grows, creates, and uncovers new skills and techniques to perfect their masterpieces.

The best thing about open-ended, sensory play is that there are so many different ways to make it new and exciting again. Simply change the theme, filler, tool, or board—and uncover even more hours of exploration!  

Here at The Creative Learning Co., we want to be a resource for you as you discover that creative play doesn’t have to be complicated in order to be loads of fun for everyone!  

Our Learning Boards™ are designed to help foster open-ended play in your little explorer’s day-to-day lives. We continue adding new boards all the time to keep things exciting and engaging!  

Learning boards™ make it easy for both parent and child to enjoy play-based learning. It’s easy to start a new activity or cover a new skill simply by swapping out the board.
