At Stay and Play, we believe that play is a powerful and natural way for children to learn and explore the world around them. Our play-based curriculum is thoughtfully designed to foster holistic development, spark curiosity, and ignite a love for learning in our young learners. We understand that every child is unique, and through playful interactions, we provide a nurturing environment that caters to each child's individual interests and needs.
Our Playful Learning Approach:
Learning Through Play: Play is at the core of our curriculum. Children engage in purposeful play, where they actively explore, experiment, and solve problems. Whether it's building with blocks, creating artwork, or engaging in dramatic play, every moment is an opportunity for growth and discovery.
Personal, Social and Emotional Development: Play enables children to build meaningful relationships and develop emotional intelligence. We foster a positive and inclusive atmosphere where children learn to communicate, share, and work together with their peers.
Communication and Language: This area focuses on developing a child's ability to listen, understand, and communicate effectively through play. It includes activities to enhance speaking skills, vocabulary, and the use of language to express thoughts and ideas.
Physical Development: Playtime is an opportunity for children to enhance their gross and fine motor skills. Whether they are climbing, dancing, or engaging in arts and crafts, they are continuously strengthening their physical abilities.
Literacy: Early literacy is key to unlocking your child's potential. Our curriculum includes interactive storytelling, phonics activities, and early writing exercises to foster a love for reading and writing.
Mathematics: We believe in making math fun and accessible. Our activities help children explore basic mathematical concepts, patterns, and problem-solving in an engaging and enjoyable way.
Understanding the World: Our nursery encourages children to be curious about the world around them. From nature walks to technology exploration, we introduce your child to the wonders of science, nature, and diverse cultures.
Expressive Arts and Design: Nurturing creativity is essential for your child's holistic development. We offer a wide range of artistic activities, music sessions, and imaginative play to allow children to express themselves freely.
The Teacher's Role:
Our experienced educators act as facilitators, guiding and supporting children as they play, learn, and make sense of the world. They observe each child's interests and progress, tailoring activities to promote growth and development.
Parent Involvement:
We believe in forming a strong partnership with parents. We regularly share updates on their child's development, invite parents to participate in special events, and encourage open communication to ensure a collaborative learning experience.
At Stay and Play, we cherish the joy of childhood and understand that learning is best when it's fun. Our play-based curriculum sets the stage for a lifetime of curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning. Join us in this exciting journey of exploration and growth!
