LEARNING THROUGH HOOPS
Play-Based Learning
The Little Dribblers program is designed to incorporate social and educational elements that our mini-players will encounter in Kindergarten and their daily life. Toddlers are exposed to number recognition, proportional sizing, letters, phonetic sounds, colours and animals. Fusing early childhood education with basic basketball skills allows for a fun, stimulating experience and a smoother transition to Kindergarten.
Comprehensive Educational Programming
The learning doesn’t stop when our little ones leave the court! Immediately after registration, each mini-player will receive a schedule with sessional dates and the corresponding academic focus for each class. Every week parents will also receive optional activities they can work on at home with their toddler to prepare for the upcoming session. For example: Session 6 may focus on mammals. On the evening of session 5’s class parents will receive an email of optional step by step, developmentally appropriate, fun activities and resources focusing on mammals. Parents have the option to fully maximize the program by completing the designated activities and applying the concepts learned in the upcoming class. This allows for increased familial bonding, maximized knowledge retention, and a fully comprehensive educational experience.
