Nurture Infant House – Where Learning Begins with Joyful Play in Tampines

At Nurture Infant House, we believe that the early years of childhood should be filled with love, discovery, and meaningful learning experiences. Situated in the heart of Tampines, our centre is more than just a space for care—it’s a nurturing environment where young minds blossom through the power of purposeful play.

Whether you're searching for Tampines infant care, Tampines child care, a caring Tampines nursery, or a creative Tampines preschool, Nurture Infant House is your trusted choice for early education and holistic development.

Why Learning Through Play Matters

At Nurture Infant House, we embrace a play-based learning philosophy because research—and decades of experience—show that children learn best when they're actively engaged and having fun. Our curriculum is thoughtfully crafted to turn everyday moments into opportunities for growth, helping children develop essential cognitive, social, emotional, and motor skills.

Let’s dive into 20 interactive and educational activities that reflect our joyful approach to early learning in Tampines.

Spark Curiosity with Simple Science

1. Bubble Volcanoes

   
   

   One of our children’s favorites, this activity uses baking soda and vinegar to create fizzy eruptions. It's a hands-on way to explore basic chemistry while encouraging curiosity, teamwork, and observation—fundamentals we emphasize in our Tampines child care setting.

2. Nature Walk Explorations

   
   

   Our learners love going on guided nature walks. We collect leaves, stones, and other treasures to study shapes, textures, and colors, nurturing a deeper appreciation for nature in line with our Tampines preschool curriculum.

   
   
   
   

3. Seed to Sprout Projects

   
   

   Children at our center experience the joy of planting seeds and watching them grow. This simple gardening activity teaches patience, responsibility, and the basics of biology.

   
   
   
   

4. Magnetic Wonders

   
   

   We encourage little ones to experiment with magnets to explore attraction and repulsion. This sensory-rich activity supports scientific thinking and language development, cornerstones of our Tampines nursery learning approach.

   
   
   
   
   
   
   

5. Light and Shadow Play

   With flashlights or sunlight, children learn how shadows change depending on angles and objects. This fascinating discovery fosters spatial awareness and introduces early physics concepts.

Building Language Through Stories and Play

6. Interactive Storytelling

   
   

   Using puppets and props, our educators make story time come alive. Children become part of the narrative, which improves listening, comprehension, and expressive language—key elements of our literacy program.

   
   
   
   

7. Alphabet Tracing Stations

   
   

   Tracing letters on colorful mats or sand trays helps children develop both fine motor skills and letter recognition. This tactile activity is a staple in our Tampines child care center.

   
   
   
   

8. Word & Image Pairing

   
   

   Our matching games connect printed words to real-life images, strengthening vocabulary and building reading readiness through visual association.

   
   
   
   

9. Letter Hunts

   
   

   We transform our classrooms into letter-hunting playgrounds. Children search for hidden alphabet cards and think of words starting with each letter—blending literacy with movement.

   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   

10. Rhyming Games & Songs

    
    

    Singing rhyming songs and poems helps children understand sound patterns and syllables. This playful approach to phonics supports early reading development in a fun and stress-free way.

Enhancing Physical Development Through Movement

11. Indoor Obstacle Courses

    
    

    Using tunnels, balance beams, and soft play mats, we set up exciting obstacle courses that help children build strength, coordination, and resilience.

    
    
    
    

12. Playdough Sculpting

    
    

    Children at Nurture Infant House love using their hands to shape, roll, and squeeze playdough. These actions strengthen their hand muscles and fuel creativity.

    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    

13. Ball Skills

    
    

    Catching, rolling, and tossing balls develops hand-eye coordination and promotes social skills like turn-taking and collaboration—skills we value in every Tampines child care experience.

    
    
    
    

14. Sticker Art

    
    

    Using stickers to create patterns or images improves precision, focus, and pincer grip—all crucial for early writing skills. Our sticker sessions are always a hit with the little ones!

    
    
    
    

15. Music and Movement Sessions

    
    

    We play fun, age-appropriate tunes and encourage children to move to the rhythm. These sessions help boost balance, body awareness, and emotional expression.

Inspiring Creativity and Expression

16. Finger Painting

    
    

    Nothing excites young children more than getting their hands messy with paint! Finger painting allows them to explore color mixing and patterns while building their sensory and creative abilities.

    
    
    
    
    
    
    

17. Collage Time

    
    

    From magazine cut-outs to natural textures, we give children a variety of materials to create unique collages. This activity fosters decision-making and appreciation for different forms of art.

    
    
    
    

18. DIY Musical Instruments

    
    

    Children craft their own instruments like tambourines and maracas from recyclable items. These musical tools then become part of music lessons, integrating creativity with rhythmic learning.

    
    
    
    

19. Shape Sorting Games

    
    

    Sorting by color, size, and shape might seem simple, but it’s the foundation for early math skills. These fun activities teach logical thinking and categorization.

    
    
    
    

20. Nature Prints

    
    

    Children use leaves, flowers, or bark from their outdoor explorations to create stunning prints on paper. This artistic-science fusion enhances their connection to nature while encouraging creative expression.
