Our Community Childcare Learning Hub is making a significant impact on families in Tanzania. As the first facility of its kind in the country, we are pioneering a transformative approach to childcare, especially for young children from low-income families. Every Saturday, parents and caregivers bring their children to the hub for practical learning experiences. Our hub serves not only as a place for education but also as a beacon of hope for the entire community. Through tailored classes, workshops, and essential resources, we empower parents, caregivers, and preschool teachers to better support their children's early development.

Learning shapes 🔴🟩🔺️◼is crucial for children aged 2-5 for several reasons: 1. Cognitive Development: Recognizing shapes helps enhance problem-solving skills and critical thinking. Children learn to categorize and differentiate objects, which lays the foundation for more complex concepts. 2. Spatial Awareness: Understanding shapes aids in developing spatial awareness, which is essential for activities like reading, writing, and navigating the environment. 3. Fine Motor Skills: Many shape-related activities, such as drawing or building with blocks, promote fine motor development and hand-eye coordination. 4. Language Development: Learning shapes introduces new vocabulary and helps children express their thoughts and ideas more clearly. 5. Mathematical Foundations: Shapes are fundamental in early math concepts, helping children grasp concepts like symmetry, patterns, and measurement. 6. Creativity and Imagination: Engaging with shapes encourages creative thinking and can be integrated into art and play, fostering imagination. learning shapes is a building block for various skills that support overall development in young children. 😊let them play,let them learn
