Through dance, young learners can convey their feelings and imagination,
boosting their confidence and self-expression. Dance also builds strength,
particularly in the core, legs, and arms, which is important for overall physical
development. This month, our young learners learned dance steps to "Waka
Waka" and the "Holi Song."
Drama
"When we pretend, we can go anywhere – the moon, the jungle, or the zoo!"
"Imagination is the key to creativity, and every child has a part to play."
Drama is a fun activity where young learners can pretend to be different
characters, use their imagination, and tell stories. Through drama, young
learners learn how to speak, express their emotions, and listen to others.
Pretending to be various characters allows them to understand both their
feelings and the feelings of others.
This month, our young learners were engaged in a ‘Train the brain' task, wherein
they had to coordinate their expression of thoughts with the assigned body
movement. They also practiced counting up to twenty, adding a fun twist by
saying ‘quack’ at numbers 5, 10, 15, and 20.

EYP Playtime
“Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning.”
~ Fred Rogers
Children always love free play and peer-to-peer interaction. They used their freedom of choice to play on slides, swings, and sand-pit while choosing their other favorite spots in the EYP play area. Play allows a child to learn the skills of negotiation, problem-solving, sharing, and working within groups. Children practice decision-making skills, move at their own pace, and discover their interests during play. Unstructured play may lead to more physical movement and healthier children. Here, in our EYP play area is the fount of such unstructured play.

Our Children had an exciting and skill-building experience during the LEAP Activity, where they engaged in two fun-filled activities that enhanced their cognitive and motor skills.
Feed the Hungry Bear – The little ones had to carefully feed the bear with pom-poms by pulling the strings while ensuring they didn’t fall into the tiger’s mouth. This activity helped improve their hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and problem-solving abilities.
Double Matrix – In this engaging task, children matched shapes and patterns and arranged various pieces correctly. It strengthened their visual perception, logical thinking, and pattern recognition skills.
These interactive activities encouraged focus, coordination, and critical thinking, making learning both enjoyable and impactful for our young learners!
