Playgroup Classes
NOW registering
groups for the end of summer break and fall semester.
Playgroup
classes with Tanya always include lots of music, opportunities for learning,
growing, socializing, exploring and playing in a safe, loving and intimate
gathering. Classes can have as much or little structure as is supportive
for the indidvidual group.
Having
class in the same home each week is best for the children if it can be
arranged. You can register for one playgroup class or semester and mini
semester packages.
The curriculum for private playgroup classes is designed based on the
group dynamic as well as the needs of the individual children within the
class. Early concepts such as shapes, colors and numbers are presented
through music, images, movement activities, puppetry, stories, age appropriate
instruments and props. Language growth and development is supported and
encouraged through playful voice and speech exercises, interactive word
building songs, dramatic word play, rhyming, call and response exercises
and an open ended invitation to play with vocalization. Fine and gross
motor skills are nourished and supported throughout the program. Attention
is also given to strength building, body part awareness, core strength,
personal space, socialization, emotional processing, teamwork, appropriate
and safe behavior in a group, LOVE and FUN. True To Kids private playgroup
classes include art and some science projects and even baking to the degree
that our space allows. Classes are always focused to present all materials
in ways that will be most interesting given your child's personality and
learning style. I have drawn from what I find to be the best of many schools
of thought on early development as applied in classes, my own twenty years
of working with children and an ever deepening discovery of how best to
be of service to our children.
