Kangaroos ( 2-3 years old); Children are starting to master abilities like running, talking, and playing with friends at this age, which is wonderful. Additionally, they have a high awareness for the world around them and are always learning new skills and observing new things. Children will rapidly grow their vocabulary throughout this period, as well as their interests.
Our play-based learning programme includes carefully planned, well-resourced activities that are guided by the children’s interests and developmental stages.

Play dough, sand play, obstacle courses, messy arts and crafts, outdoor games, unstructured free play, painting, cooking, singing, building with blocks and construction toys, sharing rhymes and songs—the list of daily activities is endless.
