Philosophy
Play-based learning in early childhood is an educational approach that focuses on allowing children to learn through play and exploration rather than structured teaching methods. D Point childcare utilizes play-based learning where children are encouraged to engage in hands-on activities, creative play, and social interactions to develop their cognitive, physical, social, and emotional skills. Typical learning activities include crafts, coloring, building with blocks, and imaginative play. Our program embraces this philosophy and provides a nurturing and stimulating environment where children can learn and grow through play. By fostering a sense of independence and encouraging collaboration among children of different ages, Beatrice’s program creates a dynamic and enriching learning experience for all participants.
