Baby on the Move and Music is for babies who are becoming more mobile and builds on the children's experiences during the treasure basket sessions. In heuristic play the children have the opportunity to move on from asking 'what is it?' to 'what does it do?' and 'what can I do with it?' We offer an extensive range of materials that will enable to children to explore, 'cause and effect', carry out simple object categorisation and increase their sensorial experiences. Each class will include some group time as well as exploratory play. This will involve music, actions, songs and rhymes.
Accompanied: Tuesdays 09:30-10:20, Wednesdays 09:30 - 10:20, Friday 11:00-11:50

Graduating from the baby classes, Toddlers explore colour, shape and texture through art / craft, with no pressure to make realistic images. They are free to explore paints, crayons and clay with a sense of pride in their own creativity. Parents / nannies are encouraged to support the children by letting them learn and discover their own creativity by doing their own work. The art of learning is in the doing and not in the end result.
The class is a relaxed and fun begining to the toddler's discovery of arts and crafts with a taste of the Toddler Music.
Accompanied: Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesday & Thursday 09:30-10:30.

Songs, actions, puppets and movement are introduced, using musical instruments/props and having lots of fun. The class is designed to give the children a gentle and comfortable introduction to music and socialising with others. Everyone learns to share and experience new sounds together.
This is a very relaxed atmosphere and participation from parents and nannies encourages the children to become more involved as the class progresses. The class is in two halves, with a break in the middle for a snack and hand painting and the latter half is the music.
Accompanied: Thursdays 9:30-10:30.

This is the age of confidence building, concentration is stronger and children are ready for longer classes. Developmental activities in art, craft, music and movement and sensorial play are explored every week with a different theme. Collage, 3D and paint techniques are introduced incorporating classis children's books, artists and nursery rhymes.
The support of parents and nannies is still vital at this age. The learning is not in doing but in the end result.
Accompanied: Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays 10:45-12:15.
