Child Development

The key driver at the heart of Maureen’s Playgroup is your child’s development in the following areas:

  • Social skills
  • Language development (both English and Irish)
  • Thinking skills including imagination, concentration and creativity
  • Problem solving
  • Fine motor skills
  • Gross motor skills
  • Listening skills
  • Non-verbal communication.

The curriculum, structured activities and unstructured play are all carefully chosen to ensure that we help to develop confident, articulate, capable and most importantly happy children.

The following diagram shows how our Playgroup activities help to develop these skills:

Where necessary the Playgroup works closely with professionals such as speech or occupational therapists to ensure the best outcome for your child.
