Dalcroze Eurhythmics (Music)<\/h3>\n

In our daycare centers, we are proud to incorporate the Dalcroze Eurhythmics approach with the\u00a0elements of Orff and Gordon methods. It fosters a deep appreciation for rhythm and melody, providing an engaging and interactive musical experience for children. Active participation in rhythmic activities enhances focus and concentration, improving cognitive skills that extend beyond music.\u00a0The class involves live piano accompaniment and its dynamic makes learning music fun and enjoyable.<\/p>\n

Ponies<\/h3>\n

Our Meilen daycare offers a magical experience with ponies. Beyond mere rides, children connect with nature, build confidence through grooming and riding, and develop a lifelong love for animals. These enchanting encounters provide holistic benefits, fostering motor skills, emotional well-being, and a sense of responsibility.

Gym<\/h3>\n

Regular visits to the school gym keep our little ones physically active and provide an excellent platform for social interaction and physical development.\u00a0The novelty of climbing, jumping, and maneuvering through various obstacles appeals to their sense of curiosity and adventure. Our daycares are also equipped in little gyms which allows children release their energy. Not only helps sport our children to stay healthy, it also encourages and challenges them to go beyond their limits.<\/p>\n
