Nursery in Dubai

Kids Island Nursery, in Dubai works on the fundamental milestones established by Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). EYFS guides us with tools and techniques to follow for each age group  ensuring all children, regardless of age, ethnicity, or social background have equal opportunity to excel as individuals.

Children are born ready to learn and learn fast. However, they achieve different milestones at different times, based on their interest and environment during a set period. When children attend a nursery school in Dubai, they are able to interact with other children from different backgrounds. Attending a Nursery in Dubai is one of the best experiences that a child as young as two can enjoy. The mix of races and ethnicities, amazing resources of teachers from all over the world, and state of the art equipment will help your three-year old progress greatly compared to attending school anywhere else in the world.

There are standard goals that children will reach during their years at nursery. These years are called, “The Magical Years”, as they have passed the terrible twos and are now finally accepting approved behavior, understanding commands, being independent and their minds begin creative and imaginative thinking. This period with be both amusing and enlightening to parents as well.

A 3-to-4-year old is prepared to grow and develop in many aspects throughout the year and keeping track of their achievements can be a difficult task. Each child will develop varying skills and talents however, there are certain general advancements that all children are likely to make at pre-school level.

Speech and Language Milestones

Turning three for any child is a time where parents will finally be able to communicate with their children much more than they were able to before. At the end of the 4th year, he or she should be able to say his of her name and age when asked, and will answer questions clearly as they would have picked up around 250 – 500 words. They are able to tell stories and update you on their day at school.

Cognitive Development Milestones

If you thought the terrible two were bad, because they never stopped moving around, the three’s is an age, where parents would hear the word “Why?” at least a hundred times a day. 3-to-4-year-olds will question everything around them. As annoying as it might be, this is normal in the developmental progress as they try to catch up with information. This is when cognitive development takes precedence over everything else as they begin to understand and form opinions on varying subject matters. During this time they will name colours, and understand concepts like same and different, morning, noon and night, and remember stories their teacher told them at nursery. They will use building blocks to construct tall structures and solve age appropriate puzzles.

Emotional and Social development Milestones

A child aged between three and four will thrive in social situations. They will make friends easily and find things to say and do with their newfound friends almost immediately. They will share their toys and accept the concept of waiting their turn during play. Their acting skills will also develop well as they imitate parents and teachers, and show affection to other children and babies. They will understand the concept of possession and will know what belongs to them and their friends. They will make faces to show their emotions; like for instance when you call out bedtime to your 3 year old, they will make a sad face to show their disapproval
