How to prepare your child for their first day at preschool
Small steps at home make the first day of Play Group or Nursery calmer for your child and for you.
When children build with blocks, pretend to cook or dig in the garden, they are learning far more than it looks.
Play builds real skills
- Language: children talk, listen and tell stories.
- Early maths: counting, sorting and comparing sizes.
- Motor skills: running, climbing, cutting and drawing.
How we use play at CMRIS
Every class mixes free play with short, guided activities, so children learn through doing.
