Sense Education

This is about training children's senses and helping them to better perceive and understand the world around them. This can be achieved through Montessori sensory materials and activities.

Bilingual Language Development

Montessori attaches great importance to language development. In a prepared environment, the children are encouraged to express themselves orally, to tell stories, to expand their vocabulary and to develop their first writing and reading skills.

This area includes subjects such as geography, science, history, art and music. Children are given the opportunity to explore the world around them and develop an understanding of different cultures and areas of knowledge.

Movement and Body Awareness

Montessori promotes the physical development of children through targeted movement and sensory activities. Children get to know their bodies better and develop their motor skills.

Creativity and Self-expression

The children have the opportunity to develop their creative side, be it through art, music, dance or other creative activities.

Overview

Children start to explore the world around them as soon as they are born. At Kidzee, the play group curriculum enables children to continue their exploration. Early experiences in the first few years of life are critical for acquisition of skills as maximum brain development happens during this period. The objective of the program is to train parents to help them foster their child’s development by learning and practising child development through a scientific approach. This program will foster social, aesthetic and motor skills in young children. This program helps infants and toddlers develop their latent language and maths skills through the Glenn Doman method.
