* Longer sleeps

* Waking up feeling refreshed
* Reducing the spread of germs
* And having a more active mind, which increases the amount of information children absorb, therefore increasing their skills and knowledge. ... See MoreSee Less

Chinese New Year is a Chinese Festival that celebrates the beginning of a new year on the traditional Chinese calendar.
Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year and initiates the year of the pig.
The pig represents luck, overall good fortune, wealth, honesty and general prosperity.
Happy Chinese New Year 🐖 ... See MoreSee Less

A self-portrait is an intimate bold declaration of identity. In her/his self- portrait, a child offers herself/himself as both subject and artist. When we look at her/his self-portrait, we see a child as she/he sees herself/himself. The story of self-portrait work is a tender story to tell.

Today at Kilmore Childcare Centre, the children engaged in a water play activity... Did you know that water play benefits your child's developmental in needs FIVE different ways..
1. Motor Skills. Water Play gives many opportunities to develop fine and gross motor skills across age ranges. Children will increase their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination through actions like pouring, squirting, scrubbing, stirring and squeezing.
2. Problem solving Skills. Water play allows children to explore a substance and make discoveries about it.
3. Language development. Imagine the discussions you can have asking what they are doing
4. Social and Emotional Skills. It increases their ability to concentrate on one activity when presented as a tranquil and repetitive activity (scooping, pouring and running their hands through the water). Gentle water play allows them to unwind, order their thoughts and relax.It also encourages role play and crucial social skills like cooperation and sharing.
5. Science and math concepts. Water Play builds the foundation for understanding various scientific concepts. It will introduce children to terms such as Full, Empty, Half, Less.
