Transitional Kindergarten (TK) Program in a Mixed-Age Enviro

At Busy Doodle Bugs, our Transitional Kindergarten program embraces the beauty of a mixed-age setting, where children learn and grow together in a dynamic, play-based environment. Our approach fosters collaboration, empathy, and leadership skills as older and younger children engage in meaningful interactions.

• Age Group: Our TK program is designed for children ages 4 to 5 years, integrated with younger preschoolers to create a rich, inclusive learning community.
• Learning Through Play: We recognize that play is the cornerstone of early learning. Our curriculum encourages exploration and discovery, allowing children to learn at their own pace through hands-on experiences and imaginative play.

• Peer Learning: Children learn from one another, with older kids taking on mentoring roles and younger ones gaining confidence and inspiration from their peers.
• Social Skills Development: Interacting with children of various ages helps develop essential social-emotional skills, such as cooperation, negotiation, and empathy.
• Diverse Learning Opportunities: Our mixed-age setup allows for differentiated learning, where activities can be tailored to meet the varying developmental needs and interests of all children.

• Creative Exploration: Art, music, and movement activities encourage self-expression and creativity, allowing children to collaborate on projects.
• Literacy and Language: Engaging storytelling, rhymes, and interactive games introduce letters and vocabulary in fun, engaging ways that resonate with all ages.
• Hands-On Math: Children explore math concepts through play, using blocks, puzzles, and group games to build foundational skills in a supportive environment.
• Science and Nature: Outdoor exploration and hands-on science activities spark curiosity about the world, promoting a sense of wonder and discovery.

• Experienced Educators: Our passionate teachers facilitate a nurturing and engaging learning environment, guiding children through play while supporting individual growth.
• Flexible Learning Spaces: Our classrooms are designed to accommodate a variety of activities, promoting exploration and interaction across different age groups.
