The development of a structured curriculum is very important in providing appropriate learning experiences tailored to children’s growth and stages of development. At KIPS, we conduct lessons that are based on a carefully designed curriculum.

Children aged 0 to 6 are said to experience rapid growth in physical, emotional, social and cognitive areas. At KIPS, we focus on the care and education of children aged 0 to 3. Children aged 0 to 1 develop their senses and motor skills, while those aged 1 to 2 begin to develop a sense of self and actively explore their surroundings. By the time they are 2 to 3 years old, closer to the time they will graduate from preschool, their social skills and language abilities continue to develop further.

Each year, when 2-year-olds first join us, they often play alone, but gradually progress through observational play and parallel play, and eventually begin to invite friends to play together. Through these interactions, they learn cooperation and competition, which support their growth. Additionally, in English and PE classes, they learn social skills such as expressing themselves and waiting their turn, while Science, Art and Music lessons encourage creative activities. Providing stimulation to the five senses in a balanced manner during the infancy contributes to the development of non- cognitive skills and enhances self-esteem.

By maintaining effective communication with parents, we aim to create the best learning environment for children this year.
