Caterpillar 2 (2-3 year olds)
At this age the children really enjoy to do such things as imaginative play; dressing up, playing shop with their little trolleys and food, in the home corner area, visiting the doctor, cooking dinner or taking their dolls in buggies for walks. This age group enjoy acting out and imitate what they see, and hear, in order to understand the world in which they live. This age group also enjoys circle time where they all sit around in a circle and sing songs, read stories. We also work on flash cards to learn our colours, shapes and animals. We start to do some early Montessori work such as pouring & spooning, threading and Colouring.
Caterpillar 2 children love to go to the garden to run, climb and have fun. The ratio of staff to children in this age group is 1:6.
