Pause and Play Early Learning Resources

This parent sent in a special request to create choice boards specific to their kiddos favourite tv shows, movies, and activities. We used images she was familiar with, and clipart that reflected her ethnicity and abilities. Her little one has given the official stamp of approval and made it known that Aristocats is #1. 🏆🐈

Swipe to see the only images I took during this quick project! 💀🙈 After making a couple changes, this project was printed and laminated.

A past customer reached out to order a sensory bin and sent along photos of a bin I created years ago for a local non-profit. I was so excited and I couldn’t say “YES!” fast enough! I was eager for the creative outlet while also recognizing that the work I was referencing while painting and gathering items for the sensory bin was actually my own. It was also a treat getting to see the growth in my own artistry and technical skills! Swipe to the end to see the original inspiration. 🥹

This particular sensory bin has a home, but another bin very similar to this one available. Only differences is the colours of the peg dolls snow suits. 💙❄️
