This room is essential to provide and ensure a safe, non-threatening environment in order to calm or stimulate children through each of their senses. Many children need controlled environmental stimulation to engage in multi-sensory activities. The primary focus is to help children learn to relax, self-regulate, engage and communicate. At times, sensory signals do not get organized into appropriate responses in the brain. This can lead to difficulty in regulating emotional and behavioral responses or over\/under reactive responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pre-K and Kindergarten programs access funding through Alberta Education called Program Unit Funding <strong>(PUF)<\/strong>. The funding covers the cost of the additional Teacher assistance needed for a child to participate fully in our programs. The funding also covers speech and language therapy as well as other specialized resources needed to assist the child\u2019s development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>   <strong>  Bubble Tube \/  Fibre Optics &amp; Gear Wall  \/     Marble Wall<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" data-id=\"3735\" src=\"https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bubble-tube-wep.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3735\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bubble-tube-wep.webp 480w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/bubble-tube-wep-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3736\" src=\"https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fiber-optics-web-768x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fiber-optics-web-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fiber-optics-web-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fiber-optics-web-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fiber-optics-web-600x800.webp 600w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/fiber-optics-web.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"988\" data-id=\"3737\" src=\"https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web-1024x988.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web-1024x988.webp 1024w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web-300x289.webp 300w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web-768x741.webp 768w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web-1536x1481.webp 1536w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web-1200x1157.webp 1200w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web-600x579.webp 600w, https:\/\/agapelearningcentre.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/marble-wall-web.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sensory Room Our Sensory Room is a wonderful addition to our program!
