PICNIC DAY! A Story about directions & positioning

Spatial awareness is an important step in essential cognitive development and affects muscle strength, coordination, self-confidence, and thinking skills. With this book, children can develop an understanding of the self and the relationship between objects within a given space in a fun way.
 
In or out? The days ahead, the baskets packed and food is made, our friends are here and blanket laid. It’s picnic time! Come with us on a rhyming adventure in spatial awareness.
 
We live in a tactile world where space and positioning are important tools of expression. Understanding spatial language helps children to navigate their environment, to describe and organise their world. Picnic Day follows the story of some enthusiastic fruits and vegetables as they excitedly prepare for a picnic together. A healthy journey through spatial awareness and friendship.
