Children's Place Childcare Centre is proud to offer these activities in our program
Theme based learning:
Children's Place Childcare Centre is a theme based centre. This means that every two to three weeks the children learn about new events, holiday, places, people, animals, weather and much more. Some themes we have done latetly are Fall, pumpkins, forest animals, and dinosaurs. We plan daily activities such as art, music, math and science on the current theme.
Gross Motor:
We believe that gross motor is an important aspect to our program. Being a centre that is located at a school, we have access to a large outside climbing structure, swings, and a huge field where endless activities can take place. We also have access to a gymnasium where the children have structured and non-structured time to play.
Sign Language:
There are many benefits to using sign language with children. It can facilitate in the development of linguistic, cognitive, and social-emotional skills in you children. The children will participate in a sign language program that is suitable for their age. It includes DVDs, CDs, coloring pages, flash cards, charts and more.
Yoga:
Yoga for children has many benefits. It promotes patience, flexibility, concentration, language, relaxation and much more. The children practice yoga specifically made for them twice a week. They have their own mat for their personal space.
Group Rhythm Classes:
Once a week the children will be participating in group rhythm classes with Drummer Dave! The children love their time spent with Dave. He promotes sharing, turn taking while he encourages eagerness to work and create through Rhythm and instruments that he brings into the class.
