In this fun and engaging activity, Nursery and Toddler children used ear tips (cotton swabs) dipped in paint to create art. They practiced writing their names with colourful dots. This activity helped develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and letter recognition, while also allowing children to express their creativity.

Why are friendships important in early childhood? When your preschooler becomes part of a friend group, these social connections increase innate feelings of belonging in your preschooler, which is shown to decrease incidents of stress, anxiety, and depression. Strong social bonds among children also help them develop higher self-esteem #parenting #parentsofcolombo #momsincolomb #parentsoftoddlers #parentsofpreschoolers #parentsofelementary #SriLanka #internationalschoolsrilanka #canadiansinsrilanka #expatssrilanka #preschool #preschoolers #inclusiveeducation #inclusiveeducationforall #MapleBear #maplebearglobal #preschoolsinsrilanka #montessori #kids #earlychildhood #elementaryschool #education #school #kindergarden #childcare #srilanka #lka #earlychildhood #schoollife #childcare #kindergarden #kidsactivities #preschool #education #elementaryschool #school #schoolactivities #montessori #schools #environment #srilanka #rainforests #kidsactivity #lka #environmentfriendly #kids #inclusiveeducation #maplebear #MapleBearSuccess #MapleBearColombo #elementaryschool #MapleBearGlobalSchools #ParentTeacherPartnership #MapleBearJourney #momsincolombo #Bambalapitiya #colpety #Wellawatte #colombo #colombo7 #colombo5 #canadianhighcommissioninsrilanka #expatsinsrilanka #parentsoftoddlers #parentsofpreschoolers #parentsofcolombo

Making playdough is the perfect way to introduce your child to simple skills like measuring, counting and following a series of instructions. It can also improve communication and problem-solving skills. Also, Playdough lets children use their imaginations and strengthen the small muscles in their fingers - the same muscles they need to use to hold a pencil and write. Making and playing with playdough supports children's social skills such as sharing, taking turns, and enjoying being with others. More than anything, we at Maple Bear Canadian School believe the child needs to enjoy every bit of what they do in school.

Parent-teacher conferences are an important part of a child's education, particularly at the Pre school & elementary levels. These conferences allow parents and guardians to communicate with the teacher about their children's academic progress, social growth, and general school performance.
