Classes for little people
Discover exciting opportunities for young children to explore what their bodies can do, express themselves and connect with friends!
Designed by occupational therapist, Isobel Lyall, our early childhood classes are an excellent first step on the way to formal education. Not only do our classes promote gross motor, fine motor and self-regulation skills, but also build children's pretend play abilities, which are linked to the development of language and literacy.
Our classes are delightful for parents and grandparents too, as we invite you to join in the fun, coach and model for your child, and to enjoy the rich relationships that develop between the children, caregivers and our nurturing teachers.

Join us and discover the amazing things your child can do!
Play to Learn Toddlers Circus
Toddlers Circus is for ages 18 months to 3 years, but our age ranges are flexible, so if you have children at different ages, you can bring them to the same class. Parents/caregivers are requested to participate in the class to provide additional modelling, scaffolding, support and assistance.

Play to Learn Preschool Circus
Once children are a bit bigger, they are ready for a longer, more structured class, and for more advanced gross motor skills to be introduced. Preschool Circus classes are for 3-5 year olds and can be combined with either Let's Get Messy! sensory play group, or Crafternoons for 4-5 year olds, to make an extended half-day that promotes school readiness. Parents/ caregivers are welcome to join in, but also to gradually decrease their participation to support their child's development of independence.

Let's Get Messy
Messy play is important for the development of children's sensory processing skills, and is so much fun! Best of all, we can enjoy cleaning up together afterwatds. Each week, our occupational therapist Isobel Lyallprepares a different sensory exploration activity for the children to get stuck into. Let's Get Messy is for 18 months-4 year olds.

Crafternoons
Crafternoons are a new activity for children aged 3-4 years (who no longer need a sleep during the day!), including all the benefits of sensory play but with a more defined outcome. Over the course of a term of classes, we’ll progress from very simple activities with play-based process and open outcomes, toward following a more structured process to achieve an outcome that is more defined, while still allowing lots of avenues for creative exploration and individual expression.
