At-Home Activities to Support Early Learning

  • TLW Admin

Private preschools offer a unique and enriching environment tailored to fostering a love for learning from a young age. Often characterized by smaller class sizes and customized teaching methodologies, these institutions focus on building a strong educational foundation. Parents enrolling their children in private preschools are often curious about what a typical day might look like and the kind of experiences their children will have. Here’s a quick look at what preschoolers get to enjoy throughout the day and how the learning can be complemented at home.

Early Literacy Activities

Preschool literacy lessons often involve storytelling, letter recognition, and phonics games. Through read-aloud sessions, teachers ignite a passion for books while helping children identify letters and sounds, fostering vocabulary acquisition and enhancing comprehension skills. You can also nurture this love for literature at home by reading books at different times of the day or before bedtime.

Incorporate Math Concepts Through Daily Tasks

Math lessons in private preschools focus on foundational skills like counting, pattern recognition, and basic problem-solving. Students participate in sorting objects by size or color, counting blocks, or one-on-one correspondence through hands-on activities. You can foster math skills also at home by having your child pick and count grocery items at the store, playing games where they identify shapes in everyday items, or counting steps as they go up and down escalators. According to First Steps, by the ages of two or three, a child’s brain will have up to twice as many connections between brain cells compared to the amount of connections they form in adulthood. These math activities contribute greatly to their ability to learn, retain and use these skills.

Create Art Projects

Art time fosters imagination and fine motor skills through activities like coloring, tracing, and drawing. Children explore different mediums — crayons, watercolors, clay — to express themselves while developing coordination. Families can create fun seasonal crafts, work through a coloring book together, or simply draw freely! Display your favorite creations around the house to develop your little one’s confidence in their artistic abilities.

Joyful Music Lessons

Music is another essential element that is incorporated in our preschool curriculum. Teachers introduce songs that encourage movement, rhythm, and memory skills. You can nurture these skills at home simply by adding instruments such as small keyboards, tambourines or maracas. These allow your child to experiment with sounds and develop a sense of rhythm. Regular sing-alongs and at-home dance sessions are also very fun and provide great opportunities for exercise and collaboration!

A day in the life of a child attending our exceptional private preschool is filled with diverse learning experiences. Parents can further support their child’s growth and development through meaningful everyday activities at home. At The Learning World Venetian, our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to harness the rapid brain growth of this critical developmental stage, offering an environment rich in exploration and discovery.
