Inside the Playhouse
At the Playhouse, we foster a love for learning through a balanced approach that nurtures the whole child. Our curriculum blends structured academic foundations with play-based exploration, allowing children to develop cognitive, social-emotional, and physical skills in a natural and engaging way. We provide a rich language environment, hands-on activities, and opportunities for creative expression, all designed to support curiosity, confidence, and growth.
Our Space
- Open Play Areas and Play Structures: Flexible play spaces that allow for imaginative play and movement. These spaces are thoughtfully curated to support both parallel play, where children play alongside one another while developing independence, and collaborative play, which encourages teamwork, communication, and problem-solving.
- Gathering Circles: Welcoming spaces for group, Circle Time learning, including engaging discussions, songs, dancing, games and stories.
- Yoga and Meditation Space: A peaceful shared area used for instructor-led gentle movement and mindfulness, proven to support stress management, boost self-esteem, enhance concentration and memory, and develop strength and flexibility.
- Art and Craft Tables: Art space for both structured crafts and open-ended creativity.
- Quiet Corners: Soft spaces for reading, resting, and reflecting.
Exploring the Outdoors
You may have spotted us exploring Lincoln Crossing in our big red buggies! Outdoor time is an essential part of our day at the Playhouse, providing children opportunities to move their bodies, observe seasonal changes, engage their senses, and develop a love for the environment in an organic way!
- Backyard Play and Work Space: Our backyard serves as an extension of the classroom, offering opportunities for outdoor learning, play, and socialization. Here, children engage in active movement, explore water play, participate in hands-on projects, and sometimes share meals outside.
- Park Visits and Nature Walks: Regular visits to local parks provide space for free play, group games, and exploration, while guided walks through nearby paths encourage mindfulness and observation, helping children discover the beauty of the world around them.
