They will participate in art and craft activities that will allow them to refine the use of their hands and fingers for more precise movements and further develop their hand eye coordination. The children will have the opportunity to participate in several outdoor, large group gross motor activities. These activities are designed to improve coordination (when moving or standing still), balance, and spatial awareness during movement. There are also activities that will engage the children in tasting and touching to help further develop their sensory skills.
0-2 years: From the birth to three months babies have the ability to focus on objects up to few inches away from themselves. Up to six months they will begin to develop their co-ordination, enjoy bright colours and shiny things.

It’s often important to teenagers that they feel good about themselves and they belong.
People at this age are caught between an adult and a teenager. They have a lot more opportunity to explore with less parental control and they are may be presented with responsibilities similar to an adult.
