Our approach is to teach through play!
More details
What is "learning through play"?
- Play is a natural way for a child to understand the world. It helps children learn, experiment, communicate and develop.
- Learning through play does not mean that children simply play all day. It means that we use game methods and techniques in all types of activities: in speech development, mathematics, creativity classes, during walks and even during meals.
How does this happen in practice?
- Developmental games: We use a variety of games that develop thinking, memory, attention, imagination, fine motor skills, speech and other important skills. For example, games with a construction set develop spatial thinking, role-playing games develop social skills, and didactic games develop cognitive abilities.
- Game methods: We include game elements in lessons so that children find learning interesting and exciting. For example, in math classes we can use counting sticks, cubes or number cards, and in speech development classes we can use finger games, dramatized performances or storytelling.
- Play environment: We create a developmental play environment in the group that encourages children to explore, create and communicate. The group has different play areas: a role-playing area, a construction area, a creativity area, a reading area, etc.
- Free play: We provide children with time for free play, where they can independently choose an activity, show initiative and creativity.
Benefits of learning through play:
- Children learn with pleasure and interest.
- Play develops motivation for learning.
- Play promotes the all-round development of the child.
- Play helps children adapt to the social environment.
Examples of games we use:
- Role-playing games: "Hospital", "Shop", "Family", "Hairdresser", etc.
- Outdoor games: "Catch-up", "Hide and Seek", "Tag", etc.
- Didactic games: "Find a Pair", "Put the Picture Together", "What's Extra?" etc.
- Creative games: drawing, modeling, paper crafting, construction, etc.
At our daycare, we are sure that play is the best way for preschoolers to learn and develop!

In our kindergarten "LisenOK" we practice teaching in mixed-age groups. Children of different ages learn and play together, which contributes to their social and emotional development.
The advantages of this approach:
- Mutual learning: younger children learn from older children, the older children learn to care.
- Сommunication: children learnt to get along with each other and resolve conflicts.
- Uniqueness: we take into account the individual characteristics of each child and help to reveal their talents.
We offer:
- Development through play: role-playing, active, didactic, creative games.
- A variety of activities: drawing, modeling, music, reading and much more.
- Creative freedom: Children are free to express themselves and their ideas.
- Harmonious development: physical, intellectual, emotional, social.
At our daycare, your child will feel comfortable and confident among children of different ages. They will receive the necessary knowledge and skills, as well as important experience of communication and interaction, which will become a solid foundation for further development.
We are always open to dialogue with parents and are ready to discuss questions about your child’s development and education.
