The Foundation: How Learning Happens

At Kirpa’s Play & Learn, our emergent curriculum is inspired by "Early Learning for Every Child Today" (ELECT). We believe that children thrive when they are encouraged to be creative, independent, and resilient.

Our educators plan with intent, focusing on the four foundations of learning:

Belonging: Every child feels they are a valued member of our community.
Engagement: We provide environments that spark curiosity and focused play.
Expression: Encouraging children to communicate their feelings and ideas.
Well-being: Prioritizing physical, social, and emotional health

The Core Pillars

Our daily programming is built around these essential components to ensure a well-rounded experience:

Language & Literacy: Building vocabulary through stories, rhymes, and conversation.
Mathematics & Numeracy: Exploring numbers, shapes, and patterns through play.
Science & Exploring: Fostering curiosity about the natural world.
Sensory & Fine Motor: Strengthening hand-eye coordination with tactile activities.
Health & Mindfulness: Teaching self-regulation and healthy habits.
Creative Arts & Dramatic Play: Encouraging imagination and self-expression.

Curriculum By Age Group

Infants (6 weeks – 12 months): Nurture & Safety

We provide a "home away from home" environment focused on consistency and security.

Daily Rhythm: We mirror your home schedule for napping and feeding.
Sensory Play: Peekaboo, rhyme time, and soft-textured toys to stimulate visual and motor tracking.
Communication: We introduce basic sign language to help babies express their needs early on.

Toddlers (12 – 24 months): Explore & Discover

This stage is all about active discovery and using the five senses.

Active Discovery: Plenty of indoor and outdoor time to build coordination and problem-solving skills.
Rhythm & Movement: Daily singing and music sessions to enhance language development.

Junior Preschool Program (24 months – 36 months): Play & Learn

Transitioning to Junior Preschool is an exciting milestone as children become more eager to engage with peers.

Creative Expression: Development is supported through music, dramatic play, and building projects.
Literacy Foundations: We use creative activities to promote language and literacy skills in a fun, engaging way.
Physical Engagement: Outdoor activities are planned to help children burn energy while building social skills

Senior Preschool Program (36 months – 4.5 years): Imagine & Build

Our Senior Preschool program prepares children for the next stage of their life by focusing on self-regulation and independence.

Self-Regulation: We foster fundamental stages of self-love and emotional maturity through regular teachings.
Complex Play: Children are encouraged to imagine and build, taking risks in their learning to generate new possibilities.
