Preschool Program 1 Ages 2-3 Years
In the Cocoons preschool group for 2- to 3-year-olds, each day is designed to support their growing independence and curiosity while fostering key developmental milestones. The morning begins with a warm welcome and free play, where children explore building blocks, puzzles, and imaginative play materials. Morning Circle Time follows, featuring engaging songs, rhymes, and stories that introduce the day’s theme while developing language skills and social connections. During this time, children practice listening, taking turns, and participating in group activities that enhance their confidence and sense of belonging.
Mid-morning centres focus on hands-on learning, with activities like sorting objects, stacking toys, and exploring sensory bins filled with sand, water, or textured materials. These activities encourage problem-solving, fine motor skills, and early cognitive development. Outdoor play offers plenty of opportunities for running, jumping, climbing, and playing group games like “follow the leader” or “Ring Around the Rosie.” These activities strengthen gross motor skills and foster cooperative play as children learn to share and interact with peers.
After lunch and a restful nap, the afternoon includes creative activities such as painting, drawing, or pretend play. These projects encourage self-expression and creativity while also building fine motor coordination. Music and movement activities, like dancing or playing with simple instruments, help children explore rhythm and develop physical coordination. The day concludes with quiet storytime or reflective group discussions, allowing children to share their favourite activities and practice communication skills. The Cocoons programme creates a well-rounded, joyful environment where 2- to 3-year-olds can explore, grow, and thrive at their own pace.
