Love Our Schools Day Project: Faith North Early Childhood Learning Center
Faith North Early Childhood Learning Center Love Our Schools Day
The Sensory Walk Project will transform designated areas of our preschool campus into interactive, developmentally appropriate sensory pathways designed to support the unique needs of young learners, including students with disabilities. Using colorful, hand-painted designs on outdoor sidewalks and indoor hallways, the sensory walks will invite children to hop, spin, balance, trace shapes, follow patterns, and engage in movement activities that stimulate multiple senses. Each section of the sensory walk will be intentionally designed to target specific developmental areas—such as motor coordination, spatial awareness, balance, sensory regulation, and social-emotional skills. For example, footprints may guide students through a sequence of movements that strengthen body awareness, while textured paths and handprint trails will encourage tactile exploration and bilateral coordination. The sensory walks will serve as a universal support for all preschool students and a targeted intervention tool for students who benefit from structured sensory input to self-regulate and focus.
WHAT TO EXPECT: Painting Project
No experience is necessary—just bring comfortable clothes you don't mind getting paint on, closed-toe shoes, and a positive attitude. All supplies and basic instruction will be provided. You'll work alongside other volunteers and may interact with teachers or staff. Expect to spend 3-4 hours on-site. It's hands-on work that's both fun and rewarding, and you'll leave seeing the immediate impact of your efforts.
