the hand that rocks project
early
childhood
rocks!
a non-profit organization dedicated
to promoting inclusive sensory
and emotional education
what we do
-
we make beautiful rocks with oil pastels and glue
-
we display them, give them away and teach others how to make them
-
our rocks raise awareness that more sensory and emotional experiences need to be provided for young children
-
we sell rockits! to make it easy for you to get started making rocks and to raise funds for our events
-
Our events feature the best sensory and emotional activities for young children
why we do it
-
research proves that early childhood experiences matter greatly
-
By age 3 a child's brain has already reached 80% of its adult volume
-
multi-sensory and emotional experiences help connect the right neural pathways during early childhood
-
enhancing a child's sensory and emotional growth at this early stage is highly effective, helps them feel good, and reduces the need for more expensive interventions later on
​
-
Our organization's goal is to collaborate with others to create sensory and emotional awareness, activities, fun, reading, and relaxation to children and families everywhere
-
You can have fun, get creative, and help with that goal. MAKING ROCKS IS A CALMING SENSORY EXPERIENCE IN ITSELF and can work for any age.
