We offer quality learning experiences for children.
We encourage our babies to move in a range of ways indoors and outdoors. Together we crawl, wriggle, slide, climb, cruise and take steps! It’s so exciting supporting children to take their first steps and seeing them go from laying, to sitting, to crawling, standing and then walking and running! All of our activities and environment help promote this development to enable babies to take those first steps and more. We have a ballet bar mirror that the children adore standing at and cruising along, they just love to bend and stretch while holding the mirror to play peek a boo! We also practice lifting our arms up high to play peek a boo with scarves too! All of the furniture is low level to promote standing and cruising along. Our table and chairs are low level to enable children to quickly move out of high chairs and start sitting at the table. We have activity frames for our littlest babies who are developing their coordination whilst laying down, and we have tummy time mats to promote tummy time and strength and control. We have tunnels and soft play for the children to explore moving their bodies in different ways to strengthen all their muscles. Outside we go to the garden areas and practice our crawling and balancing and taking steps! We even chase the ducks – which is great motivation to get moving! We also explore the mud kitchen, lifting the heavy items, stretching and developing out control of holding objects.
