Our Wardong children have been exploring drawing, identity and creative expression using photographs of their own faces as the starting point for their artwork. 📸

With textas in hand, the children designed their own bodies, clothes, characters and imaginative scenes around their photographs. Each creation was completely unique - just like the little artists behind them!

This experience encouraged children to look closely at facial features and body parts while developing their fine motor control, pencil grip, hand/eye coordination and confidence in representing themselves through art.

Most importantly, there was plenty of opportunity for imagination, storytelling and those wonderfully unexpected details that make children’s artwork so special! 💜

Our Djiti Djiti children have been exploring Germany as part of our cultural learning focus! We talked about German traditions, clothing and the beautiful Bavarian/Alpine region before getting creative with our very own Bavarian inspired hats.

Using newspaper, paint and feathers, the children experimented with colour, texture and design as they created their own unique hats. There were plenty of little artists at work - and some very fancy new headwear making an appearance!

Experiences like this encourage children to develop curiosity and respect for the many different cultures, traditions and ways of life that make up our wonderfully diverse world.

Our Wardong children got their little fingers busy creating colourful rainbows through a fun fine motor and colour matching experience!

Using small pieces of coloured paper, the children pinched, scrunched, manipulated and glued each piece onto the matching section of their rainbow.

This simple experience supported so much important learning - finger strength, dexterity, hand/eye coordination, colour recognition, concentration, persistence and independence. ✨

Those little fingers are doing some very important preparation for future writing, drawing and self help skills, all while creating something wonderfully colourful!

A little scrunch here, a little stick there… and suddenly we have rainbows! 🌈💜

Today our Wardong children explored our colourful Spot and Line pre writing experience, developing the important foundations for school readiness through playful mark making.

Using coloured textas, the children followed visual guides between coloured spots, exploring straight, curved lines, as well as circles, crosses and squares. We talked about directions such as up, down, across and around while practising pencil control, hand/eye coordination, visual tracking and concentration.

What looked like colourful lines on a page was actually lots of important learning happening!

The children were learning to watch, listen, control their movements, follow visual cues and persist when a line didn’t quite go where they planned. These are all valuable foundations for the more complex writing and numeral formation skills they will develop as they transition towards school.

Our Wardong children are certainly getting their little hands, eyes and brains ready for their next big adventure! 🎒

🌱🪴 Little Gardeners at Koolbardi 🪴🌱

Dig a little, plant a seed,
Watch our little garden grow.
With busy hands and curious minds,
There’s so much for us to know! 🌻

Our little Koolbardi gardeners have been busy exploring gardening through dramatic play, using a collection of recycled and upcycled resources to create their very own garden world. 🌿✨

With pots, containers, pretend tools, loose parts and plenty of imagination, the children have been digging, planting, watering and caring for their gardens - all while engaging in wonderful open ended, imaginative play.

Through this experience, our children are developing their fine motor skills, coordination, language, social interactions and problem solving abilities, while beginning to explore ideas around caring for plants, nature and our environment. 🌏💚

We love seeing how something as simple as a few recycled resources can grow into a whole world of learning! 🌱🥰

❤️🇭🇷 Celebrating Croatian Culture with Licitar Hearts! 🇭🇷❤️

Today in Djiti Djiti, we explored a beautiful Croatian tradition through a hands on Licitar Heart Cookies Playdough Experience!

Inspired by the traditional red Licitar hearts of Croatia, the children used red playdough, heart shaped cutters and a range of decorations to create their very own special hearts. They pressed, shaped and decorated their creations with white patterns, beads and sequins, making each heart completely unique. ✨

As we explored, we talked about Croatia, hearts, patterns, decorating, gifts and culture, while looking closely at photographs of traditional Licitar hearts and noticing the beautiful details.

This experience supported our children’s fine motor skills, creativity, concentration, language development and symbolic thinking, while also creating an opportunity to learn about and celebrate cultural traditions.

We loved talking about how Licitar hearts are often given as special gifts and asking the children, “Who would you give your heart to?” ❤️

A beautiful little celebration of culture, creativity and connection in Djiti Djiti! 🌏✨

Create a Face – Exploring Identity & Mark Making

Who makes you… YOU? 💜

Today the children were invited to create their own unique faces using a blank page with realistic eyes already provided. With colourful textas, mirrors and lots of imagination, they added noses, mouths, eyebrows, ears, hair, expressions and plenty of personality! 😊

This open ended experience gave each child the freedom to represent themselves, their friends or an imaginary person in their own special way. We chatted about facial features, emotions and what makes every person different and unique.

Along the way, the children were also strengthening their fine motor skills, practising early mark making and developing the little hand muscles that support future drawing and writing.

Most importantly, there was no “right” way to create a face - just lots of creativity, confidence and wonderful ideas!

It’s Monday! 🌿 And our wonderful Educators are ready to JUMP into another week of learning, exploring, discovering and having serious fun!

🌱 Need a little more ME time?
🌱 Looking for care that feels like a second home?
🌱 Need a casual day for your little one?

We currently have casual days available across our Studios, at the same cost as a standard day, giving you a little extra flexibility when you need it.

At Milestones Early Learning Edgewater, we’re so much more than a childcare centre. We’re a nature based learning environment, nestled alongside a beautiful natural limestone cliff face and surrounded by opportunities for children to connect with nature every day. 🌿

Our Studios each have their own personality, learning environment and outdoor space, thoughtfully designed around the developmental stages and interests of the children who call them home.

🌱 Koolbardi Studio | Babies
A gentle, nurturing space where our youngest children can build secure relationships, explore their senses and discover the world at their own pace. With carefully considered spaces for movement, messy play, music, nature exploration and those precious everyday moments of learning. 💕

🐦 Djiti Djiti Studio | Toddlers
A place for busy little explorers! Djiti Djiti encourages children to investigate, experiment, develop independence and learn through hands on experiences. From sensory and creative play to outdoor adventures, there is always something to discover. 🔎🎨

🌿 Wardong Studio | Preschool & School Readiness
Our children are encouraged to become confident thinkers, problem solvers and learners as they prepare for their next big adventure - school! Our program intentionally supports early literacy, numeracy, STEM, fine motor development, writing, creativity, independence and social skills, all through meaningful, play based learning. 📚🔢🔬✏️

And across our Studios, children have access to their own outdoor environments surrounded by vegetable gardens, fruiting trees, Bush Tucker plants, natural play spaces and our much loved centre pets. 🐹🐦

We believe children learn best when they are engaged, curious, supported and having fun - because childhood should involve plenty of learning, but even more opportunities to wonder, investigate and get a little bit messy along the way! 💜

Have you visited us before? We’d love to meet your family, show you around our beautiful grounds and introduce you to our wonderful Educators.

📚✨ WHAT AN AMAZING BOOK WEEK! ✨📚

WOW! Our centre was bursting with colour, creativity and so many incredible characters today for our Book Week Dress Up Day! 🎭📖💫

Our children, educators and families absolutely NAILED their costumes, bringing some of our favourite storybook characters to life! From princesses and superheroes to cheeky animals and much-loved book characters, we loved seeing everyone’s imagination shine. 🥰

The excitement could be felt from the moment everyone arrived, with friends eagerly waiting to see who would walk through the door next! 👀✨

And after everyone had their special moment in the spotlight, we came together for a Book Week Parade! 📚🎉 Besties walked side-by-side, siblings joined together, and everyone proudly showed off their amazing costumes.

A HUGE thank you to our wonderful families for getting involved and helping make today so special. ❤️

What a magical way to celebrate our love of books, stories, imagination and learning! 📖✨
