GIFT Daycare Center involves focusing on activities that nurture their physical, cognitive, emotional, social, and language development.  Here’s a structured approach to creating a stimulating and supportive curriculum

Physical Development: Simple obstacle courses, ball play, and dancing.

Cognitive Development: Basic puzzles, sorting shapes, and exploring sensory bins filled with safe items like large beans, rice, or water.

Language Development: Daily Storytime with large, colorful picture books, and singing nursery rhymes.

Social/Emotional Development: Encourage parallel play and introduce activities that require turn-taking.

Physical Development: Climbing soft structures, crawling through tunnels, and playing with push-and-pull toys.

Cognitive Development: Introducing more complex sensory bins (e.g., different textures), and beginning color recognition activities.

Language Development: Introduce more interactive songs with hand motions and continue with Storytime, encouraging children to point to and name objects.

Social/Emotional Development: Activities focusing on recognizing and naming emotions, using dolls or pictures.

Physical Development: Balance beam activities, jumping on spots, and throwing soft balls into baskets.

Cognitive Development: Simple matching games, and introducing counting with physical objects.

Language Development: More complex stories, and starting to engage children in conversations about the story.

Social/Emotional Development: Group activities that encourage cooperation, like building a large block structure together.

Physical Development: Simple group sports games, like a toddler version of soccer or basketball with a soft ball.

Cognitive Development: Introduction to problem-solving through play, like figuring out how to get a toy out of a container.

Language Development: Encourage children to express themselves with songs and provide opportunities for them to tell their own stories.

Social/Emotional Development: Role-playing activities, encouraging empathy and understanding of different roles.

Physical Development: Activities that require more precise movement, like stringing large beads or stacking small blocks.

Cognitive Development: More advanced puzzles and games that require following simple rules.

Language Development: Encouraging more complex sentence structures and introducing new vocabulary through themed activities (e.g., animals, weather).

Social/Emotional Development: Encourage activities that promote independence, like self-feeding during snack time and cleaning up toys.

Physical Development: A mix of all previously introduced physical activities, with an emphasis on those the children enjoyed most.

Cognitive Development: Revisit favorite puzzles and sensory bins, possibly introducing slight variations to challenge the children further.

Language Development: Continue with interactive Storytime, possibly introducing storybooks that relate to the children’s experiences or interests.

Social/Emotional Development: Focus on group activities that have been particularly successful, encouraging deeper friendships and understanding of social dynamics.
