The young children enter SEED and make their first foray into the world of learning and development. Based on EYFS milestones and experiential learning, the curriculum aids a child's learning through various structured activities to foster growth in cognitive, literacy, logical, and social abilities, as well as the child's ability to become an independent and self-assured individual. At Petals, we follow inquiry-based learning for our kids to encourage curiosity, enhance their learning process, and develop critical thinking by posing questions and creating stories.
In Seed i.e. Playgroup, your child will be introduced to a structured routine and a stimulating setting that fosters good vibes and facilitates joyful learning. Our facilitators apply a dynamic learning method carefully, emphasizing active inquiry, sensory learning, and the introduction of fresh themes. As a result, children start loving investigating objects, demonstrating a sense of self, initiating sharing and caring, appreciating rhythmic patterns, mimicking adult facial expressions, and beginning to ask questions.
A few of the activities are 'Connect Time,' 'Tearing & Pasting', 'Matching', 'Dominoes', 'Picking the Right Card', 'Dancing', 'Role Playing', 'Exploration'.
