Learning through play
Play is very important in children's development. It allows children to understand and to adapt to the world around them to integrate themselves into it.
Through various activites and play materials offered at the Centre, your child will develop their imagination, learn to regulate their emotions and stress, and develop empathy towards others.
Toddlers (18 - 30 months)
The toddler program focuses on the development of independence, verbal expression, and sensory exploration. Toddlers are invited throughout the day to explore different workshops according to their preferences and interests.
