Making art is an important step in the development of reading and writing for children. Mark making is the route through which children come to understand words can have meaning, while the act of making art enables children to develop the fine motor control needed to form letters and words.

Art in early years encompasses a range of creative activities that foster children's imagination, self-expression, and cognitive development.

The start of school is just around the corner, and it's time to remind your children that "everyone is someoneโ€™s baby.โ€

The girl with differences who often eats her lunch by herself in the cafeteria,

the boy the group of boys are teasing,

the late girl who forgot her locker combination in the first week of school and "disturbed the class,"

and the boy who stuttered through his public speaking presentation.

Because out there is a mom who is worrying so much about her children,
knows the good in them,
and is praying the world will see them as she does,
like I do for them.

So, always make sure to be kind to EVERYONE.

We are teaching children that the kindness they show throughout the day is more important than their academic performance, musical talent, or athletic ability.

This is how critical play is.

And before we begin: yes, of course not every baby feeds easily, and not every baby sleeps easily. But what we are suggesting is this โ€” the body does indeed know how to do these things.

There is no formal lesson given to a baby on how to eat.
There is no formal lesson given on how to sleep.
There is no formal lesson given on how to seek connection.
And there is no formal lesson given on how to play.

Eating, sleeping, seeking connection, and playing are not skills created by adults. They are biological drives embedded into human development from the start. While adults support these instincts, the internal impulse already exists. It is part of the blueprint of survival and growth.

Play is how the brain wires itself for thinking and reasoning. It is how the body strengthens, coordinates, and learns. It is how emotions are explored, tested, and understood. It is how humans develop resilience, problem-solving skills, and social understanding. Across intelligent, social species โ€” primates, dolphins, elephants, dogs โ€” play emerges naturally because healthy development depends on it.

Modern systems have lost sight of this. Play has been pushed aside in favor of drills, worksheets, and rushed academics โ€” as if real learning only happens when it looks structured or measurable. But replacing instinct with pressure doesnโ€™t accelerate development; it disrupts it.

Play is not a break from learning, nor is it something children grow out of. It is how learning begins โ€” and how it deepens. It builds the foundation for language, problem-solving, empathy, resilience, and critical thinking. This is not a trend or an opinion โ€” it is how human development unfolds. To support children is to support play. To understand development is to protect the conditions that allow it to thrive.

We donโ€™t need to reinvent how children learn. We need to stop interfering with what they are already wired to do.

๐Ÿฅฃโœจ Exploring, learning, and growing โ€” one bite at a time! โœจ๐Ÿฅ„

At Chapter One, we actively encourage self-feeding, especially during the weaning stage, as part of building healthy eating habits and independence from the very start.

Allowing little ones to explore food with their hands helps them:
โœ… Develop fine motor skills
โœ… Build hand-eye coordination
โœ… Gain confidence and independence
โœ… Become more adventurous with textures and tastes

While we promote this important step in early development, safety is always our top priority. Our trained staff are always closely supervising mealtimes, ensuring children are safe, supported, and enjoying their food in a calm, positive environment.

We love watching our little learners grow โ€” one tiny bite at a time! ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿฝ๏ธ

Pursuing a career in Childcare requires a serious commitment, rather than a casual mindset that views it as "just a job". This profession involves a broad range of responsibilities that exceed the parameters of a paycheck, including the provision of healthy snacks and meals, as well as assuming the role of a daytime parent and educator.These children in our care deserve the absolute best and we make sure they experience a nurturing environment with love and patience. Come visit our wonderful nursery - meet the team and see what we do. Call 9199 9726.

A child gets one childhood. Just one.

Not a redo. Not a second shot. Just this one season where their nervous system is wiring up for lifeโ€ฆ and their heart is figuring out what love feels like.

Thatโ€™s why how we show up right now matters so much.

Your child needs more than food, a roof, and clothes that mostly fit. They need to feel safeโ€”not just physically but emotionally. They need to feel like theyโ€™re allowed to be who they are, even when that means theyโ€™re loud, messy, or have big feelings they donโ€™t know how to manage yet.

When they feel seen, loved, and understood, thatโ€™s when they bloom.

That doesnโ€™t mean we give in to everything. It means we lead with connection. It means we hold loving limits without shaming or yelling. It means we make space for their joy and their messiness.

When we offer consistent routines, like brushing teeth together every night or making pancakes on Saturdays, they start to feel the rhythm of safety. When we say, โ€œIโ€™m here,โ€ and actually put down our phone and make eye contact, they start to believe they matter.

Play is another big one. Not just with toys but play that includes belly laughs on the floor, cardboard box forts, and made-up songs in the car. Thatโ€™s where imagination grows. Thatโ€™s where emotional healing happens.

And maybe most important when they see us repair after a mistake, when they hear us say, โ€œI was frustrated earlier, and Iโ€™m sorry I snapped,โ€ thatโ€™s when they learn grace.

We canโ€™t get every moment right. But we can be intentional. We can show up with love, with presence, and with a deep respect for the one childhood they get.

Because even on the days that feel hard, what youโ€™re doing matters.
