Prescolare

Confident, Curious, and Collaborative Learners

Our 3–5 year olds thrive through collaboration, curiosity, and hands-on exploration. They are small, but their voices and choices matter.

When children feel safe, they are confident to explore their emotions. They still experience frustrations and upsets, but they are increasingly able to express their feelings to adults and peers, manage conflicts, take turns, and share independently. When challenges arise, they are learning to ask for help, think through solutions, and make decisions with growing independence. Their communication skills are flourishing as they follow multi-step instructions and articulate their ideas and needs clearly.

Children are supported to organise their play, choose activities, and engage as active, joyful learners. They love variation and challenge, exploring science experiments, cooking, messy play, and collaborative projects. Through these experiences, they develop both fine and gross motor skills, from pencil control and mark-making to running, climbing, and navigating playground equipment. Active play—whether in the garden or on local walks—keeps them strong, coordinated, and ready to take on new adventures.

Everyday routines continue to foster independence and self-care. Children dress themselves for outdoor play, wash their hands, serve their own food and water, use cutlery, and follow toileting routines with growing confidence. They are learning to balance autonomy with guidance, supported by adults who encourage safety, curiosity, and resilience.

Literacy and numeracy are woven into playful, meaningful experiences. Children recognise their names, explore letter sounds and rhymes, count objects, sort shapes, and engage with numbers in practical, hands-on ways. Loose parts, playful challenges, and creative projects give children the chance to problem-solve, experiment, and develop the foundational skills needed for school—while keeping learning joyful and engaging.

At KatieB Kids, we know that confident, curious, and capable learners flourish when they are empowered to explore, supported to take risks, and guided with warmth and respect. Through play, collaboration, and discovery, our Prescolare children are prepared for the next exciting chapter of their learning journey.
