We are not aimed at developing academic skills like reading and writing. There should be no set goals or any stress on performance for children this age.

Our focus is on the sensory-motor development and the social development of the child. We aim to develop age-appropriate behaviour at the right time.

Play is guided so that it becomes a learning experience. The idea is that children should transfer play behaviours such as feeding a doll, changing its clothes, etc. to themselves, and thus develop self-help skills. The thinking is that if a child can go through the motions of feeding a doll, it will soon learn to feed itself.

At Oopsy Daisy Playschool we teach children to recognize their own possessions. Soon a child will learn to identify his schoolbag, learn the mealtime routine that involves opening a lunchbox, folding a napkin and putting everything back after the meal is over and so on. Now this may not seem like a great achievement, but by the standards of toddler behaviour, it is. Children are not born with these skills, they have to develop them. And this is where Oopsy Daisy Playschool steps in to help parents out. Another advantage is that a child's language skills develop faster as they interact with many children of their own age and a little older.

At Oopsy Daisy Playschool we strive to develop the following in your child:

Language Skills:
Through story time, speaking and listening activities, rhymes and songs, language skills are developed and enhanced. We teach the children lots of new vocabulary, and learning the alphabet is made exciting and fun.

Gross Motor Skills:
Oopsy Daisy has a large outdoor play area with a playgym, swings, trampoline & toys, including scooter bikes & driving wheels. We give the kids free range to play with hoops, balls, tossing games & in the sand pit.
