Play is viewed as a natural way in which children learn
about themselves and the world around them. We give the children
opportunity to enhance their development through a variety of stimulating
activities such as:
| |
Creative
Development
It is the experience of exploring and experimenting with colours,
textures, spaces, shapes and relations through which young children
can express their thoughts and feelings.
Sensory Exploration
Is the sense of touch, taste, sight, smell and hearing. Children
vigorously use all their senses to explore everything, gathering
information and gradually absorbing concepts.
Cognitive Experiences
Is the way children learn to master many aspects of the environment
through observation, trial and error, testing and problem solving.
These are basic concepts for learning, reading, writing and
mathematics.
Scientific Exploration (Cause and Effect)
This process is the beginning of logical thought: ACTION “A
” causes RESPONSE “B”
Fine / Gross Motor Development
Movement enables children to discover more about themselves
and the world around them. As children master the skill of locomotion,
their sense of independence grows, as do their feelings of self-esteem
and confidence.
Dramatic Play
Children recreate and rehearse roles and seek to better understand
their common problems in family life and health growth.
Language Development
Each child’s language development differs from others.
There are stages in which children are learning a great deal
of words. Books and repetition encourage language development
a great deal. Each child follows his/ her own pace. |
