Our programme is well structured and our activities and groups are arranged according to the specific needs and age of the child. Our programme starts from 8 weeks of age up to 4 years of age. Our Top of the Tots programme (for ages 3 to 4 years) has just been upgraded by our consulting occupational therapist and speech therapist, to make sure that your child has all the skills necessary to enter grade 00 confidently.
We provide stimulating ideas with the emphasis on fun! Our wide range of activities include:
Baby massage for our infant and small baby classes
Language enrichment
Fine and Gross motor development
Tactile experiences and messy play
Music programme
Ball programme to help develop the vestibular system which is responsible for our balance.
Creativity
Emotional development
Social development
Coordination and much more
Parents and care givers can learn for themselves practical, easy ways of increasing their child's social skills and emotional, physical and intellectual development, and stay with them all the time! Simple activities are done in class, to lay the foundations for numeracy and literacy, and get children ready for school and life. Each week you will get new ideas to try at home and things to take home with you. For your childs benefit we do encourage you to attend classes on a regular basis so that your child learns about routine. Young children thrive on routine as it gives them a sense of security and helps them develop self-discipline.
Classes take place weekly for an hour and a half and Saturday classes are also available at some of our branches for those working parents. We follow the government school term dates and each term runs for 9 weeks. Fees are payable per term and if you join during the middle of a term your fees are worked out pro rata. There is a once off admin fee of R180 and your child will automatically receive a welcome pack containing our much-loved Tom-e doll, a drawstring bag and a car sign. Your first class is always free, so you can come through and experience for yourself what we do at Toptots!
