The Playroom

At approximately two years of age your child will move into the ‘Playroom’. Children have plenty of opportunities for more active play alongside quieter times for calmer activities. Playing with other children is an important new area for learning; activities encourage children to co-operate with one another. They enjoy spending time in the home corner, putting the dollies to bed and dressing up!

Children thoroughly enjoy story time and taking part in action songs, rhymes and using simple musical instruments! A varied range of constructional toys encourage the children to problem solve and plan. Children are encouraged to develop their fine motor skills using a variety of materials to ‘make marks’. Routines within the playroom reflect your child’s growing need for independence, alongside the close warm relationship with staff members
