In Kindergarten, children start building important life skills in fun and playful ways. They learn to think, ask questions, and explore the world around them. Through stories, games, and activities, they begin to share their own ideas and listen to others. With gentle encouragement, they practice trying new things, learning from mistakes, and celebrating progress - helping them grow with confidence and curiosity.
