PlayLab II (4 & 5-year-olds)

PlayLab II is especially designed to develop early literacy skills and strengthen children’s basic linguistic and cognitive skills. Following simple, sequenced instructions, learners are exposed to theme-based language patterns and hands-on play-based activities that aim at building phonological awareness. Across all sessions, children are exposed to English meaningfully through music, art, storytelling, nature exploration, and play-based discovery. Two special parent-child sessions bring families together for collaborative learning experiences or scavenger hunt.

This year’s specially designed series of sessions includes the following:

🎵 30/10/2026 - Little Melody Tunes: The Return of the Rhythm
