Staff help children develop mathematical skills. For example, they count and measure out ingredients to make play dough. Staff help to extend children's communication skills. They introduce new words and ask questions.

They demonstrate a good understanding of how to stay safe. For example, they talk about fire safety and not talking to strangers. Children enjoy fresh air and exercise. They make regular trips to the park and visit places of interest. Children learn about the lives of others through a variety of activities. For example, they make cards for Eid.
