Our project, based on Pikler methodology
The basis of our project is total English Immersion.
It would be a waste not to use the natural abilities of the child to learn during their most vital years, as learning a second language is as easy to him as learning the first one. English is involved in everything we do: what we prepare and develop, what we touch and look at, what we celebrate and listen to.
Our ‘Pikler Approach’ lays emphasis on autonomy and free movement.
The relationship between our teachers and the children is extremely important. The adult does everything ‘with’ the child and does nothing ‘to’ the child. We give children the freedom to observe, try things out and, by constantly investigating, overcome obstacles freely. By this means they are allowed to develop in a natural way, at their own rhythm, without any interference.
At Kiddiwinkles we have the team and the tools to stimulate development in all areas, motor, cognitive, physical and emotional. Our children feel at home because they receive caring attention.
Learning awakens through emotions.
Kiddiwinkles is a bilingual nursery in Lleida whose primary aim is to educate children from 0-3 years of age using total immersion in the English language, thus treating them as potential native speakers of the new language. Children are exposed to the English language as soon as Iemer Nursery opens its doors
We believe that at this young age, school and education should be a learning game, where children learn the language in a natural way through games and daily interaction. Learning is much easier through emotional stimulus and fun.
First years of life…
It’s in this period, and specially the first 3 years of life, when the building blocks of thinking, language, vision, attitude and skills are set.
Multiple cognitive benefits have been found on children that have been exposed to more than one language. They have a wider neuronal activity, a much denser tissue on the areas of the brain related to memory, attention and language than the children that have been exposed to online one language
Children learn a language listening, watching, imitating and practicing. That’s why our strategy is energetic and wide-ranging – English is involved in everything we do: what we prepare and develop, what we touch and look at, what we celebrate and listen to. Full English Immersion.
