![]() | Fun with Messy Play : Ideas and Activities for Children with Special Needs Funny smells, sticky hands and squishy textures are all part of the way in which children develop sensory awareness. Fun with Messy Play is an exciting activity book that heightens the sensory perception of children with special needs through the imaginative use of everyday 'messy' materials like baked beans, condensed milk, jelly or glue. Tracey Beckerleg has worked as a teacher for children with special needs for ten years, where she first began developing her approach to messy play. As a mother of five children, Tracey used messy play in her parenting. She lives in Hampshire, England, and is currently a Portage home visitor, carrying out a home-visit educational service for pre-school children with support needs. |
