Expression & Exploration

Art

Art as Expression: We believe in the power of art as a means of self-expression. Through painting, drawing, sculpting, and other artistic mediums, children are encouraged to express their thoughts, feelings, and ideas in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.

Art as Exploration: Art is a journey of discovery, and our curriculum is designed to encourage children to explore and experiment with different materials, textures, and colors.

Music

Movement to Music: Play different types of music and encourage the children to move their bodies in response. Use scarves, ribbons, or streamers to add a visual element to their movement. Encourage them to dance, twirl, jump, and sway to the music, allowing them to express themselves through movement.

Music and Art Integration: Combine music with art activities by inviting children to create visual art inspired by music. Play different types of music and provide art materials such as paint, markers, or crayons. Encourage children to listen to the music and create artwork that reflects the sounds, rhythms, or emotions they experience.

Movement

Active Learning: Incorporating active learning experiences that involve movement. For example, use interactive games to teach concepts such as colors, numbers, letters, and shapes.

Outdoor Play: Provide ample opportunities for outdoor play and exploration. Outdoor environments offer space for children to run, jump, climb, and engage in motor activities that support their physical development. Set up playground equipment, ride-on toys, and open-ended materials like balls, or hula hoops to encourage active play and movement.

Language

Rich Language Environment: Surround children with a rich variety of language stimuli throughout the childcare setting. Label objects, toys, and areas of the room with simple words and phrases. Use descriptive language during everyday activities to help children expand their vocabulary and develop an understanding of concepts (e.g., big, small, hot, cold).

Storytime: Incorporate daily storytime sessions where children gather to listen to engaging stories read aloud by caregivers. Choose age-appropriate books with colorful illustrations and simple narratives. Encourage children to participate by asking questions, making predictions, and discussing the story afterwards. This helps build listening comprehension, vocabulary, and narrative skills.

Mathematics

Counting Games: Incorporate counting activities into daily routines and playtime. Use toys, blocks, or snacks to practice counting aloud. Encourage children to count objects as they play, whether it's counting the number of blocks in a tower or the number of animals in a picture book. Also engage in counting games like "I Spy" or "Count the Trees" during outdoor play.

Number Recognition: Introduce numbers through visual aids such as number cards, posters, or puzzles. Encourage children to identify and name numbers in their environment, from door numbers to street signs. Provide opportunities for hands-on exploration with number-related materials like counting beads, number stamps, or magnetic numbers.

Outside Play

Physical Activity: Provide ample opportunities for children to engage in active play and movement outdoors. Set up a variety of motor activities such as slides, swings, and ride on toys. Encourage children to run, jump, skip,and hop, helping them develop coordination, strength, and motor skills.

Creative Play: Foster imaginative and creative play outdoors by providing open-ended materials and props. Set up outdoor play kitchens, sandboxes, or kitchens where children can engage in pretend play and role-playing. Encourage them to use their imagination to create stories, build structures, and explore imaginary worlds.
