The Under 2’s favourite action song right now is “Sleeping Bunnies”. The teachers introduce various animals as well as animal sounds (Sleeping Tigers, Elephants, etc.). The children lay on the floor pretending to sleep and wait for the cue to wake up, hop like a bunny, make an animal sound or stomp their feet, then stop and restart the game with a new sleeping animal.

Young children learn through the senses as they interact with their environment. In the Under 2 classroom, we offer different types of materials that engage a child’s sense of touch, sight, hearing, taste and smell, among others. Exploring musical sounds enhances creativity, expression, autonomy, and an awareness of cause and effect. (Click for more information!)

Music is a form of communication and children learn music the same way they learn language, by listening and imitating from a young age. Providing music throughout the day promotes language development, fine motor skills, imagination, and a sense of rhythm, and can provide a fun method of physical fitness as well.
