YALA ArtsPlay!™ Tiny Explorers

Workshop Three: Opposites Attract (Word Relations)

Up and down; large and small; big and little; fast and slow. Learning about opposites is a great way for children to develop their critical thinking skills. This early exploration with comparison builds the foundations of a host of mathematical concepts, including understanding measurement, time, and spatial reasoning. Join us this week in our YALA ArtsPlay!™ workshop, “Opposites Attract.”

The workshops are FREE and presented by The Helis Foundation, and you must register for each workshop to participate.

This free 6-part workshop series is made possible by The Helis Foundation. Our workshops provide engaging arts-based activities designed to instruct caregivers on how to use the arts at home to promote early learning. Lessons are conducted by certified Louisiana Wolf Trap Teaching Artists, who have expertly crafted multi-sensory experiences that foster children’s natural curiosity for learning. After each workshop, children and their caregivers can download our digital Connection Cards for tips on how workshop activities can be continued at home.
