Activities

At Musical Chairs Daycare, we know that fun and play are crucial for learning, and have a profound impact on a growing child’s mind, body and spirit. Children under our care receive lots of free-play and structured-play throughout each day. Age appropriate activities are scheduled, with flexibility to respond to the needs of each child and age group. Activities include, but are not limited to, the following:

Indoor Activities: books and story-time, Lego’s, circle-time, tumbling exercises, music and dancing, dress up, play food, interactive stuffed animals, cars/trucks/planes, arts and crafts, puzzles, flash cards, animals/dinosaurs, trains, musical instruments, balls, dolls, various learning toys, musical instruments, various games, Mr. Potato Head, bean bag toss, blocks, beads and string, song games, play dough, coloring, sing along story books, painting, science, board games, puppets, Simon-says, and singing.

Outdoor activities: climbing, sliding, jumping, running, balls, jump rope, racing, water balloons, parachute, catch, bubbles, follow the leader, squirt bottles, ride-on toys, wagons, tunnels, safe water toys, various games, water table, painting, neighborhood walks, trips to nearby parks, exploring nature/weather, soccer, and yes, falling. We do our best to limit the possibility of bumps and bruises, with constant supervision and watchful eyes. Due to the safe environment/toys we have surrounded ourselves with, we hope to prevent injuries before they happen. During the summer months (June, July and August), we allow for more outdoor activities and creative art projects. Weather permitting, we play outdoors every day.
