We Love Learning!
We Love Learning!
The foundation stage recognises that children need to be able to use concrete experiences to provide the building blocks for their learning. Here at Mucky Pups we offer a varied and balanced curriculum, based on the early years stage compiled by EYFS, utilising play: modelling; painting; investigating; cooking and circle-time discussions as experiences for learning.
The skills are designed to develop their confidence whilst guiding the children to make sense of the physical world and their community around them. This is through conversation, observation and discovery about people, places, technology and their environment.
For the pre-schooler’s ('Mucky Pups 3+') activities become more “adult led” as their focus increases on literacy and maths and leaning programmes such as letters and sounds. It will still all be full of fun, praise, fostering both motivation and a love for learning
And baby too!
And baby too!
For our younger children ('Mucky Puppies'0-3): all of their activities are through meaningful play.
Play is one of the most important ways in which young children gain essential knowledge and skills. Play is meaningful, joyful, engaging, interactive and socially interactive.
