Whilst at Children’s Choice your child’s day will be filled with so many fun learning activities, each activity has been designed based on the National Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) Belonging, Being and Becoming with the Children’s choice Early Learning approach. As stimulating environments and experiences can shape brain structure and cognitive ability, all the interactions, experiences, events and learning opportunities are designed to nurture children’s holistic growth and development.

“Play provides opportunities for children to learn as they discover, create, improvise and imagine. When children play with other children, they create social groups, test out ideas, challenge each other’s thinking and build new understandings”
