Dramatic Play Center: Allows children to explore roles and scenarios, enhancing social skills and language development. Puzzle and Lacing Center: Develops fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and cognitive abilities. Art Center: Provides opportunities for self-expression, creativity, and refinement of fine motor skills. Science Center: Fosters curiosity and inquiry through hands-on exploration of natural materials and simple experiments. Library Corner: Nurtures a love for reading and literacy through access to age-appropriate books and quiet reading time.Structured activities, such as circle time, story reading, snack time, and creative expression, are integrated throughout the day to reinforce learning objectives and provide focused attention on key developmental areas.
