Welcome to our Sensory Storytelling programme , where young children dive into exciting art adventures that nurture creativity. Our playful sensory approach makes learning fun and holistic, refining skills and encouraging expression. Join us for a creativity journey that's packed with fun.
Children will be engaged in integrated learning across different domains on a monthly basis, with the following structure in place:
| Creative and Aesthetic Expression Music and movement, drama and aesthetic expression  Art promotes self-esteem and self-expression. Children thrive when they learn to trust themselves and communicate their thoughts and feelings through and with art. Singing and dramatisation in a group setting also enable children to learn how to work cooperatively too. These are important life skills to equip our children with. |
Visual Arts Exposure Visual creation integrated with fine motor development  Children develop an increased awareness of the key arts elements such as colours, lines, shapes, forms and/or textures through their exploration of the different art techniques. Exposure to techniques such as drawing, printing, sculpting/moulding and painting allow children to refine their fine motor skills which are critical for the development of eye-hand coordination and dexterity. |
|---|---|
| Language arts engagement and literacy development Popular children’s books will be introduced, integrated with song/rhyme  Through sensory storytelling, children not only learn to pick up new vocabulary but also develop listening and attention skills whilst building and using language. Songs and rhymes encourage speech and language development in the little ones in a natural way. |
Multi-Faceted Learning Consolidation of the key learning concepts  The integrated and sensorial learning further contribute to children’s fine motor development and understanding about cause and effect. Most importantly, the development of social and emotional competencies for children at this age will be emphasised during the weekly sessions. |
November - The Gruffalo
The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson tells the tale of a clever little mouse who boldly wanders through the woods in search of food. When he encounters some hungry predators, this tiny hero spins an imaginative story about a fearsome creature called the Gruffalo to escape danger. To his shock, the Gruffalo turns out to be real, complete with terrible claws, knobbly knees, and a poisonous wart! Yikes! But with a bit of quick thinking and a splash of creativity, the mouse proves that even the smallest creature can be the mightiest. This delightful story reminds us all the cleverness and imagination can conquer even the biggest challenges!
