@joinvroom So simple, early learning in natural environments!

[Vroom @joinvroom]

Children learn through their senses, so here's a fun #VroomTip you can do anywhere that encourages them to experiment with textures: Ask: "Do you feel my soft scarf? It feels smooth." Wait for them to respond. You're helping them make connections between words & feelings.
