🌟Killeenan developmental programme for 2-3 year old🌟

The children have been enjoying lots of opportunities for creative play, movement, and imagination throughout the week🌈

Painting activities encouraged creativity and self expression, while glue and sticking activities helped keep little hands busy and engaged🎨

The farm tuff tray sparked lots of imaginative play and conversation, with the children exploring animals, materials and story telling together 🐄

We also enjoyed singing nursery rhymes, and action songs, building confidence, communication, and lots of smiles 🎶

Using the chairs the children created their very own "bus" and headed off on an imaginary trip to Portrush, it was wonderful to see their imagination and team work come to life through play.
A lovely week of learning, laughter, and exploration together 💛

💬 SLC Message of the Month – May 💬

“Words by one make talking fun.
Copy my actions, sounds and words.”

A child’s communication skills develop rapidly during the early years. Many children begin to say their first words around their first birthday 👶

By responding to your child’s actions, sounds, and words, you help to open up communication and support turn-taking. This builds the foundations for back-and-forth “conversations” right from the newborn stage 💛

Early interactions might be as simple as smiling, making sounds, or a baby waving their arms and legs in excitement – all of which are important steps in communication development 🌱

Children enjoy a variety of engaging play experiences, supporting imagination, creativity, and social development 💛

Role play is a favourite, with children using their imaginations to become doctors in the home corner, caring for dolls and exploring real-life experiences 🩺

Some children focus on developing their fine motor skills through activities such as completing puzzles and using pop-it toys, supporting concentration and coordination 🧩

Creative expression is encouraged through art activities, with children taking pride in their pictures and creations 🎨

Most importantly, Let’s Play provides opportunities for children to socialise, build friendships, and develop confidence in a warm and welcoming environment 🌱
