Cognitive development is the ability to learn and resolve problems. Cognitive skills encompass your baby's ability to think, learn, understand and explore the environment. From birth, your baby soaks in information and starts building his/her cognitive skills.
Fine motor skills development is a very important skill for every young child. These skills help the child to start using small muscles, specifically their hands and fingers, to pick up small objects, hold a spoon, turn book pages, that way they explore their own bodies and world around them. Their fine motor skills develop as their whole body starts to move and become more stable. Our teachers ensure that they offer children an exciting and safe play opportunity to help them develop their fine a period.
Gross Motor development skills involves the larger, stronger muscle groups. In early ages it is the development of these types of muscles which allows the baby to hold their head up, crawl, sit, and later walk, run, and skip. These gross skills also help the child’s awareness, reaction speed, balance and strength.
The infants’ language development is influenced mostly by what they hear around them and what is spoken to them. The more babies are exposed to the language the better their communication skills will be. Our teachers make sure that the child is given the best practices to achieve his/her language development goal.
Starting from birth, infants learn to interact with other people to understand and control their own emotions. They develop relationships with people right around them hence we focus on developing social skills, which is an important aspect in the children’s development, and this includes self-control and making friends which in turn helps children succeed in both school and life. Our teachers help every child in learning how to develop friendship, communicate emotions, and to deal with challenges. Our teachers ensure that the child develops trust, empathy, compassion, and a sense of right and wrong.
