One of our special objectives this term: encouraging children to express themselves.
This term, we’ve introduced colouring sheets into our classes for the first time — and there’s a reason behind them.
They’re not simply there to keep little hands busy. They’re being used to help ignite conversations, encourage self-expression and support children in reflecting on their learning.
For our Twinkle Toes and Talent Toes, we’ll be chatting about what they like and don’t like about our adventure. What was their favourite part? Was there something they didn’t enjoy? Why?
For our Twirlers & Spinners, we’ll be exploring which fairytales they like or don’t like — and, importantly, why or why not.
These simple conversations are so valuable. They encourage children to:
✨ Express their feelings and opinions
✨ Talk about their experiences
✨ Remember and reflect on their learning
✨ Make connections
✨ Develop communication and language skills
✨ Understand that their thoughts and opinions matter
So when your little one brings their colouring sheet home, take a few minutes to chat about it. Ask them what they remember, what they liked, what they didn’t like and why. You might be surprised by the conversations it starts!
And this is exactly what we mean when we say Tiny Toes Ballet is more than ballet.
Our classes are a unique learning programme from walking to 7, and the only preschool dance programme fully integrated with the EYFS curriculum. Every story, song, movement, activity and conversation has a purpose.
This term, self-expression is one of those objectives — and the colouring sheets are just one of the ways we’re helping to bring that learning to life.
Because we’re not just teaching children ballet.
We’re helping them to talk, think, connect, express themselves and grow — all while having fun through the magic of dance and storytelling.
Tiny Toes Ballet. More than ballet. A learning journey from walking to 7.
