A Gentle Beginning – Play Group (2+ years)
At Scottish Corner Kinder World, our Play Group program is a tender introduction to school life for toddlers aged 2 and above. We believe in creating a space that feels like an extension of home—filled with warmth, safety, and joy.
Here, learning happens naturally through touch, rhythm, movement, and human connection. Children are gently eased into group interactions, routines, and self-expression through:
Sensory play and exploration
Music, dance, and storytelling
Bonding games and cuddles
Free play with open-ended materials
This stage is not about academics — it’s about building emotional confidence, language exposure, and a love for learning through joy and care.
Foundations of Holistic Development
We recognize that the early years shape the brain for life. Our Play Group curriculum aligns with the NEP 2020’s vision of experiential, child-centric learning. Each day includes:
Circle time to build attention and communication
Art and messy play to develop fine motor skills
Gross motor activities like balancing, jumping, and climbing
Music and stories to foster imagination and early vocabulary
Mindfulness moments to help toddlers settle and self-soothe
Children are never rushed — they are allowed to explore at their own pace, supported by trained, compassionate facilitators who understand their emotional needs.
FAQs
Does my child need to be toilet trained to join Play Group?
No. We understand that every child develops differently. Our staff gently supports toilet training in coordination with parents, without pressure.
How do you handle separation anxiety?
We follow a gradual settling-in approach. Parents are encouraged to stay during initial days, and our teachers build trusting bonds through calm, consistent routines and affection.
What’s a typical day in Play Group like?
A mix of free play, snack time, music & movement, storytelling, outdoor play, sensory activities, and quiet time. The rhythm is predictable yet flexible to children’s needs.
How do you ensure safety for such young children?
We maintain low adult-child ratios, use child-safe furniture and materials, and our facilitators are trained in first-aid, CPR, and toddler behavior management.
