Program Philosophy: Learning through Play
At Amaros Child Care, we believe that play-based learning is fundamental to the healthy development of young children. Play naturally supports children’s instincts to explore, imagine, and create, while promoting the acquisition of critical thinking and problem-solving skills. When children engage in play, they take initiative—choosing activities, generating ideas, and experimenting with solutions. This self-directed approach fosters autonomy, confidence, and a genuine love of learning.
Teachers play a critical and active role in facilitating meaningful play experiences. They thoughtfully prepare the learning environment by selecting developmentally appropriate materials and organizing interest areas that stimulate curiosity and engagement. During play, teachers provide guidance when needed and ask open-ended questions that encourage deeper thinking, all while allowing children to maintain ownership of their learning journey.
Throughout any given play period, a child may choose to solve puzzles, construct with blocks, explore books, or engage in cooperative games with peers. Each activity offers opportunities to develop a broad range of skills, including cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth. By pursuing their individual interests, children learn naturally and joyfully, building a strong foundation for future academic success.
In addition, play-based learning fosters essential social skills. Through collaboration, negotiation, and shared experiences, children develop interpersonal competence and emotional intelligence. At Amaros Child Care, we are committed to nurturing the whole child through an approach that respects and builds upon their natural developmental needs, laying the groundwork for lifelong learning and achievement.
