Terra - What's in a name - visual arts with infants

The teachers plan sensory activities with the children and make anecdotal observations about the experiences. Children's names is an important part of the programme. As I went through to the other rooms at the centre, some of the projects were researching where the child's name came from and what it means both universally and personally to the family. 
This included things like if the child was named after someone and many of the parents have their child's name and for some their footprint tattooed somewhere on their body. It was a very interesting display in the room!! How many of us have tattoos that represent who we are and the people and places that are important to us.
