When entrusted to the care of our loving and attentive daycare providers, your infant will never be left wanting for attention or cuddles. But his or her experience with us will be filled with much more than hugs and lullabies. Indeed, infants are at the very beginning of the learning age; every new discovery helps them build the foundation upon which the knowledge and understanding of more complex concepts will grow.
It is amazing to see how much a simple game of peek-a-boo can do for your infant child. Most people see games of this kind as a simple way to entertain infants. While these types of games do serve an entertainment purpose, they also are a great way to help your child develop trust (a simple way of explaining this is that your child sees you going away, but always coming back) and basic motor skills, as they try to imitate you.
Through Kids ‘r Us Daycare #2’s infant program curriculum, your child will be motivated and encouraged to develop the following skills:
- Intermediate Motor Skills: tossing and catching, crawling and walking.
- Language Skills: speech development, word/image association, story time and communication.
- Basic Music and Sound: singing, audio musical stimulation, sound recognition.
- Movement and Balance: dancing, outdoor play time, basic movement and balance oriented games.
- Basic Concepts Development: recognizing shapes and colors, basic image association.
- Creative Skills: finger painting, basic construction and drawing.
