Sand play in daycares offers a fun, hands-on way to develop early math skills. Children explore measurement and volume by filling and comparing containers. Counting and number identification become engaging as they count scoops or mold shapes. Patterns and sorting activities help with recognizing sequences and categorizing objects. Additionally, sand play encourages problem-solving and spatial awareness, as kids build structures, navigate space, and experiment with shapes. This sensory-rich experience lays a strong foundation for essential math concepts in a playful environment.
